Horizon view
Horizon from Jeans Y
51.1198° S, 90.5148° E · cell 34FGU
- Highest horizon point
- Jeans Y: 15.4° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 349°.
- Farthest visible point
- 11.4 km away at azimuth 56°, 15.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,721 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 299°, 9.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:05:15 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.
