Horizon view
Horizon from Jeans X
53.3933° S, 89.4568° E · cell 34FGR
- Highest horizon point
- Jeans X: 6.7° above the horizontal, 21.8 km away at azimuth 257°.
- Farthest visible point
- 23.7 km away at azimuth 101°, 4.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 780 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 23.0° high at azimuth 302°, 17.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:09:11 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.
