Horizon view
Horizon from Neander K
35.0478° S, 39.7474° E · cell 28HET
- Highest horizon point
- Neander K: 13.2° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 147°.
- Farthest visible point
- 12.3 km away at azimuth 32°, 3.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 131 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 56.2° high at azimuth 355°, 49.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:42:31 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.
