Horizon view
Horizon from Racah J
16.5534° S, 177.5662° W · cell 1KDV
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 9.9° above the horizontal, 24.6 km away at azimuth 359°.
- Farthest visible point
- 24.6 km away at azimuth 0°, 9.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 957 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 49.1° under it at azimuth 248°. At 2026-10-22 13:45:13 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.
