Horizon from Pontécoulant G
57.5156° S, 60.4368° E · cell 31ECL
- Highest horizon point
- Pontécoulant G: 8.6° above the horizontal, 19.9 km away at azimuth 92°.
- Farthest visible point
- 42.6 km away at azimuth 335°, 2.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,861 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 31.8° high at azimuth 337°, 29.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:02:21 UTC, when this page was served.
