Horizon view
Horizon from Hommel N
59.4289° S, 28.8560° E · cell 27EDT
- Highest horizon point
- Hommel N: 13.2° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 244°.
- Farthest visible point
- 7.58 km away at azimuth 120°, 11.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,525 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 31.6° high at azimuth 9°, 19.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:52:54 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.
