Horizon view
Horizon from Rothmann J
29.3945° S, 25.7279° E · cell 26JGK
- Highest horizon point
- Rothmann J: 19.2° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 218°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 325°, 5.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 306 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 60.1° high at azimuth 22°, 43.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:43:05 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.
