Horizon view
Horizon from Lyot D
51.6889° S, 82.5352° E · cell 33FGH
- Highest horizon point
- Lyot D: 14.8° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 187°.
- Farthest visible point
- 9.48 km away at azimuth 214°, 12.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,201 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 27.2° high at azimuth 307°, 17.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:57:56 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.
