Horizon view
Horizon from Oresme U
41.7098° S, 164.9416° E · cell 44GCQ
- Highest horizon point
- Oresme U: 2.6° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 345°.
- Farthest visible point
- 85.3 km away at azimuth 142°, -0.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,117 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 23.6° under it at azimuth 245°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:24 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.
