Horizon view
Horizon from Jacobi D
60.9079° S, 10.5544° E · cell 24EGS
- Highest horizon point
- Jacobi D: 12.0° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 271°.
- Farthest visible point
- 12.3 km away at azimuth 157°, 8.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,574 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 27.2° high at azimuth 30°, 23.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:42:57 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.
