Horizon view
Horizon from Kästner G
3.6774° S, 79.3471° E · cell 33MEF
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 2.6° above the horizontal, 36.0 km away at azimuth 274°.
- Farthest visible point
- 61.6 km away at azimuth 313°, 0.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,272 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 51.7° high at azimuth 272°, 49.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:09 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.
