Horizon view
Horizon from Pogson C
41.6227° S, 112.2443° E · cell 37GFK
- Highest horizon point
- Pogson C: 14.0° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 257°.
- Farthest visible point
- 9.48 km away at azimuth 21°, 11.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,589 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 11.4° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 278° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 13.4°. At 2026-10-22 20:30:44 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.
