Horizon view
Horizon from Hainzel T
40.1979° S, 37.3238° W · cell 18GHB
- Highest horizon point
- Hainzel T: 14.0° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 270°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 194°, 8.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 771 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 13.4° high at azimuth 80°, 3.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 20:30:38 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.
