- Pontécoulant: 21.6° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 72°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 0°, 18.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 5,262 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 29.3° high at azimuth 331°, 10.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:02:21 UTC, when this page was served.
