Horizon from Paracelsus
22.9226° S, 163.4434° E · cell 43KJN
- Highest horizon point
- Paracelsus: 8.3° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 276°.
- Farthest visible point
- 62.5 km away at azimuth 340°, 4.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,665 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 29.0° under it at azimuth 255°. At 2026-10-22 11:04:57 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.
