Horizon view
Horizon from Kreiken
9.0481° S, 84.5522° E · cell 34LAK
- Highest horizon point
- Kreiken: 10.2° above the horizontal, 14.2 km away at azimuth 206°.
- Farthest visible point
- 19.9 km away at azimuth 112°, 5.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,114 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 44.4° high at azimuth 277°, 38.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:25:33 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.
