Horizon view
Horizon from Huggins
41.0687° S, 1.5192° W · cell 23GDR
- Highest horizon point
- Huggins: 7.4° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 95°.
- Farthest visible point
- 37.9 km away at azimuth 351°, 2.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,457 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 34.8° high at azimuth 55°, 29.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:42 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.
