Horizon view
Horizon from Nicolai H
43.5720° S, 26.7191° E · cell 26GHN
- Highest horizon point
- Nicolai H: 6.4° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 285°.
- Farthest visible point
- 19.9 km away at azimuth 48°, 1.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,092 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 47.1° high at azimuth 13°, 43.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 22:33:02 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.
