Horizon view
Horizon from Ritz J
16.2488° S, 93.0094° E · cell 35KBF
- Highest horizon point
- Ritz J: 10.9° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 250°.
- Farthest visible point
- 102 km away at azimuth 165°, -2.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,870 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 33.0° high at azimuth 279°, 25.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:54:52 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.
