Horizon view
Horizon from Kinau A
62.2986° S, 20.0981° E · cell 26ECK
- Highest horizon point
- Kinau A: 5.8° above the horizontal, 16.1 km away at azimuth 96°.
- Farthest visible point
- 43.6 km away at azimuth 249°, 3.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,734 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 27.8° high at azimuth 19°, 23.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:43:09 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.
