- Purbach B: 14.4° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 283°.
- Farthest visible point
- 9.48 km away at azimuth 32°, 11.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,414 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 41.5° high at azimuth 66°, 29.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:38:39 UTC, when this page was served.
