36.9033° S, 141.1951° E · cell 41HCA
- Highest horizon point
- Jules Verne R: 12.4° above the horizontal, 18.9 km away at azimuth 287°.
- Farthest visible point
- 23.7 km away at azimuth 65°, 5.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 942 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 8.4° under it at azimuth 262°. At 2026-10-22 13:49:14 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.
