Horizon view
Horizon from Nicolai G
42.9023° S, 22.3172° E · cell 26GDN
- Highest horizon point
- Nicolai G: 13.0° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 165°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 0°, 11.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,351 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 46.4° high at azimuth 22°, 35.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:42:54 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.
