Horizon view
Horizon from Lippershey L
25.7737° S, 11.7814° W · cell 22JAJ
- Highest horizon point
- Lippershey L: 6.9° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 48°.
- Farthest visible point
- 1.90 km away at azimuth 100°, 5.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,620 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 37.7° high at azimuth 70°, 31.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 20:30:39 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.
