Horizon view
Horizon from Koval'skiy U
21.1748° S, 98.4770° E · cell 35KHV
- Highest horizon point
- Koval'skiy U: 15.3° above the horizontal, 11.4 km away at azimuth 288°.
- Farthest visible point
- 12.3 km away at azimuth 190°, 9.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,496 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 27.9° high at azimuth 280°, 12.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:08:56 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.
