Horizon view
Horizon from Rothmann M
31.2419° S, 29.8409° E · cell 27JCN
- Highest horizon point
- Rothmann M: 14.6° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 321°.
- Farthest visible point
- 14.2 km away at azimuth 206°, 6.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 622 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 59.6° high at azimuth 12°, 49.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 21:00:36 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.
