Horizon view
Horizon from Schiller A
47.1789° S, 37.6502° W · cell 18GGN
- Highest horizon point
- Schiller A: 21.7° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 341°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 150°, 18.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,565 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 11.8° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 79° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 20.7°. At 2026-10-22 20:17:21 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.
