Horizon view
Horizon from Scaliger
27.2551° S, 109.1445° E · cell 37JBG
- Highest horizon point
- Scaliger: 7.4° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 7°.
- Farthest visible point
- 47.4 km away at azimuth 25°, 4.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,706 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 20.0° high at azimuth 279°, 14.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:45 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.
