Horizon view
Horizon from Licetus W
45.9864° S, 8.5035° E · cell 24GFQ
- Highest horizon point
- Licetus W: 10.5° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 249°.
- Farthest visible point
- 13.3 km away at azimuth 169°, 3.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,434 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 39.2° high at azimuth 37°, 34.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 20:30:44 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.
