Horizon from Mallet D
46.0891° S, 56.9006° E · cell 30GFQ
- Highest horizon point
- Mallet D: 7.0° above the horizontal, 19.9 km away at azimuth 308°.
- Farthest visible point
- 31.3 km away at azimuth 283°, 4.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,499 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 42.6° high at azimuth 335°, 37.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:17:13 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.
