Horizon view
Horizon from Schiller M
48.2200° S, 41.2638° W · cell 18FDM
- Highest horizon point
- Schiller M: 20.9° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 347°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 0°, 20.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,640 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 8.0° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 83° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 18.7°. At 2026-10-22 16:42:12 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.
