- Pingré D: 17.2° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 246°.
- Farthest visible point
- 12.3 km away at azimuth 192°, 8.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 943 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 15.5° under it at azimuth 118°. At 2026-10-22 18:49:29 UTC, when this page was served.
