Horizon view
Horizon from Helmholtz T
65.8004° S, 60.0807° E · cell 31DDA
- Highest horizon point
- Helmholtz T: 7.9° above the horizontal, 15.2 km away at azimuth 333°.
- Farthest visible point
- 18.0 km away at azimuth 310°, 4.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 960 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 23.9° high at azimuth 337°, 16.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:33:26 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.
