Horizon view
Horizon from Oppenheimer R
37.4349° S, 170.4205° W · cell 2HCV
- Highest horizon point
- Oppenheimer R: 9.3° above the horizontal, 14.2 km away at azimuth 185°.
- Farthest visible point
- 19.9 km away at azimuth 91°, 7.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,733 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 42.8° under it at azimuth 222°. At 2026-10-22 15:39:34 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.
