Horizon view
Horizon from Helberg C
23.3695° N, 100.9320° W · cell 10QJJ
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 4.1° above the horizontal, 36.0 km away at azimuth 302°.
- Farthest visible point
- 41.7 km away at azimuth 173°, 3.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,529 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 47.1° under it at azimuth 65°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:17 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.
