Horizon view
Horizon from Polybius G
22.5259° S, 22.6964° E · cell 26KDT
- Highest horizon point
- Polybius G: 7.2° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 98°.
- Farthest visible point
- 37.9 km away at azimuth 46°, 3.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 145 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 64.9° high at azimuth 35°, 60.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:42:53 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.
