Horizon view
Horizon from Lehmann A
39.5109° S, 53.8741° W · cell 16HGN
- Highest horizon point
- Lehmann A: 6.2° above the horizontal, 17.1 km away at azimuth 18°.
- Farthest visible point
- 23.7 km away at azimuth 214°, 3.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,181 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 0.1° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 92° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 3.8°. At 2026-10-22 18:54:45 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.
