Horizon view
Horizon from Lippershey R
26.7117° S, 10.1780° W · cell 22JCH
- Highest horizon point
- Lippershey R: 10.4° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 191°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 121°, 8.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,476 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 69°, 30.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:04:54 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.
