Horizon view
Horizon from Jacobi E
58.5629° S, 11.7220° E · cell 24EHU
- Highest horizon point
- Jacobi E: 6.5° above the horizontal, 12.3 km away at azimuth 314°.
- Farthest visible point
- 21.8 km away at azimuth 213°, 3.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 807 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 29.2° high at azimuth 31°, 26.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:56:47 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.
