Horizon from Schuster J
1.7222° N, 149.5425° E · cell 42NCN
- Highest horizon point
- Schuster J: 16.3° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 70°.
- Farthest visible point
- 7.58 km away at azimuth 180°, 13.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,130 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 23.7° under it at azimuth 269°. At 2026-10-22 21:22:07 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.
