Horizon view
Horizon from Rutherfurd A
62.3058° S, 11.9909° W · cell 22ECE
- Highest horizon point
- Rutherfurd A: 18.7° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 240°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 168°, 14.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 752 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 18.7° high at azimuth 54°, 4.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:09:09 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.
