- Highest horizon point
- Holetschek: 10.4° above the horizontal, 18.9 km away at azimuth 326°.
- Farthest visible point
- 20.9 km away at azimuth 131°, 10.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 888 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 18.6° under it at azimuth 258°. At 2026-10-22 14:33:30 UTC, when this page was served.
