Horizon view
Horizon from Scheiner A
60.4854° S, 28.2829° W · cell 19EHG
- Highest horizon point
- Scheiner: 22.6° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 235°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 0°, 19.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 5,061 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 12.4° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 70° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 22.3°. At 2026-10-22 16:14:18 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.
