Horizon from Leibnitz R
39.5749° S, 176.3359° E · cell 45HFC
- Highest horizon point
- Leibnitz R: 14.0° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 325°.
- Farthest visible point
- 11.4 km away at azimuth 127°, 10.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 7,444 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 34.1° under it at azimuth 233°. At 2026-10-22 17:08:54 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.
