Horizon view
Horizon from Gutenberg E
8.2154° S, 42.4199° E · cell 28LHL
- Highest horizon point
- Gutenberg E: 6.3° above the horizontal, 16.1 km away at azimuth 168°.
- Farthest visible point
- 90.0 km away at azimuth 219°, 0.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,906 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 82.6° high at azimuth 339°, 79.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:38:49 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 1.9 km, the global LOLA terrain tier of 16 pixels per degree; relief smaller than that, near or far, is smoothed, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
