Horizon view
Horizon from Priestley K
58.9615° S, 110.4063° E · cell 37EEJ
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 11.8° above the horizontal, 20.9 km away at azimuth 26°.
- Farthest visible point
- 21.8 km away at azimuth 30°, 11.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,189 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 10.3° high at azimuth 285°, 3.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:17:05 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.
