Horizon view
Horizon from Regiomontanus S
28.5903° S, 2.0095° W · cell 23JCL
- Highest horizon point
- Regiomontanus: 4.3° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 135°.
- Farthest visible point
- 42.6 km away at azimuth 337°, 2.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,313 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 42.8° high at azimuth 62°, 38.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:17:13 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.
