Horizon view
Horizon from Pannekoek R
5.3339° S, 138.5320° E · cell 40MJP
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 6.2° above the horizontal, 34.1 km away at azimuth 174°.
- Farthest visible point
- 77.7 km away at azimuth 19°, 2.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 621 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 7.3° under it at azimuth 268°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:34 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.
