Horizon view
Horizon from Hommel A
53.8515° S, 33.9697° E · cell 27FGE
- Highest horizon point
- Hommel A: 9.0° above the horizontal, 25.6 km away at azimuth 42°.
- Farthest visible point
- 51.2 km away at azimuth 290°, 2.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,138 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 37.4° high at azimuth 5°, 30.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:57:58 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.
