Horizon view
Horizon from Oresme
42.6145° S, 169.2236° E · cell 44GGP
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 3.0° above the horizontal, 40.8 km away at azimuth 254°.
- Farthest visible point
- 74.9 km away at azimuth 190°, 0.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,338 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 26.0° under it at azimuth 241°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:21 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.
