Horizon view
Horizon from Lacroix K
35.1509° S, 57.7622° W · cell 16HDT
- Highest horizon point
- Lacroix K: 7.4° above the horizontal, 12.3 km away at azimuth 273°.
- Farthest visible point
- 76.8 km away at azimuth 68°, 0.9° 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 below the horizon: 2.5° under it at azimuth 93°. At 2026-10-22 20:27:19 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.
