Horizon view
Horizon from Hommel J
53.5314° S, 27.8785° E · cell 26FHA
- Highest horizon point
- Hommel J: 18.3° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 101°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 15°, 15.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,444 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 37.1° high at azimuth 13°, 21.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:16:36 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.
