Horizon view
Horizon from Nicolai P
43.2155° S, 29.6334° E · cell 27GCT
- Highest horizon point
- Nicolai P: 3.3° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 189°.
- Farthest visible point
- 49.3 km away at azimuth 16°, 0.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,130 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 47.8° high at azimuth 8°, 47.0° 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.
