Horizon from Pontécoulant J
61.7411° S, 64.2559° E · cell 31EFF
- Highest horizon point
- Pontécoulant J: 11.7° above the horizontal, 18.9 km away at azimuth 68°.
- Farthest visible point
- 21.8 km away at azimuth 120°, 9.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,816 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 26.8° high at azimuth 332°, 16.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:45:18 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.
