Horizon view
Horizon from Schomberger
76.6392° S, 24.6912° E · cell 26CFN
- Highest horizon point
- Schomberger: 14.8° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 21°.
- Farthest visible point
- 45.5 km away at azimuth 103°, 5.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,670 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 14.2° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 17° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 14.8°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:54 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.
