Horizon view
Horizon from Kircher B
65.0828° S, 43.2568° W · cell 18DDM
- Highest horizon point
- Kircher B: 23.4° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 335°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 20°, 21.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,591 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 4.7° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 83° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 18.1°. At 2026-10-22 16:15:45 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.
