Horizon view
Horizon from Phillips
26.5745° S, 75.6706° E · cell 32JJN
- Highest horizon point
- Phillips: 8.4° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 46°.
- Farthest visible point
- 60.6 km away at azimuth 145°, 3.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,104 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 48.3° high at azimuth 301°, 45.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:08 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.
