- Ritter D: 13.4° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 247°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 0°, 10.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,466 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 68.3° high at azimuth 103°, 57.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:30:14 UTC, when this page was served.
