Horizon view
Horizon from Obruchev
38.6671° S, 162.4297° E · cell 43HHP
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 5.9° above the horizontal, 39.8 km away at azimuth 287°.
- Farthest visible point
- 42.6 km away at azimuth 293°, 5.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,622 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 23.1° under it at azimuth 248°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:46 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.
