Horizon view
Horizon from Keeler U
8.9769° S, 156.9146° E · cell 43LBK
- Highest horizon point
- Keeler U: 8.9° above the horizontal, 13.3 km away at azimuth 271°.
- Farthest visible point
- 18.0 km away at azimuth 310°, 6.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 695 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 26.5° under it at azimuth 264°. At 2026-10-22 13:31:07 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.
