Horizon view
Horizon from Schiller E
54.5902° S, 48.8020° W · cell 17FEU
- Highest horizon point
- Schiller E: 22.6° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 253°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 0°, 15.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,148 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 3.6° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 87° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 17.4°. At 2026-10-22 19:24:00 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.
