Horizon view
Horizon from Mallet C
44.0207° S, 53.8959° E · cell 30GDS
- Highest horizon point
- Mallet C: 6.1° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 29°.
- Farthest visible point
- 67.3 km away at azimuth 152°, 0.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,194 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 45.3° high at azimuth 338°, 39.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:17:17 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.
