Horizon view
Horizon from Hommel S
56.7514° S, 36.1263° E · cell 28ECM
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 6.3° above the horizontal, 14.2 km away at azimuth 298°.
- Farthest visible point
- 27.5 km away at azimuth 19°, 4.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,507 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 34.6° high at azimuth 3°, 29.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:42:04 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.
