Horizon view
Horizon from Lee
30.6574° S, 40.7590° W · cell 18JEN
- Highest horizon point
- Lee: 7.3° above the horizontal, 21.8 km away at azimuth 238°.
- Farthest visible point
- 64.4 km away at azimuth 79°, 0.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,707 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 8.9° high at azimuth 86°, 8.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:38:51 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.
