Horizon view
Horizon from Hume
4.6769° S, 90.4737° E · cell 34MHQ
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 3.7° above the horizontal, 24.6 km away at azimuth 121°.
- Farthest visible point
- 72.0 km away at azimuth 181°, 1.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,789 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 35.0° high at azimuth 272°, 34.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 22:02:23 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.
