Horizon view
Horizon from Marconi
9.4812° S, 145.2025° E · cell 41LGP
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 8.3° above the horizontal, 37.9 km away at azimuth 241°.
- Farthest visible point
- 40.8 km away at azimuth 20°, 5.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 51 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 13.7° under it at azimuth 266°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:45 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.
