Horizon view
Horizon from Rothmann K
28.8620° S, 24.3570° E · cell 26JFL
- Highest horizon point
- Rothmann G: 14.2° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 261°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 0°, 10.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 321 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 25°, 49.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:43:02 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.
