Horizon view
Horizon from Snellius B
30.1617° S, 53.2086° E · cell 30JCP
- Highest horizon point
- Snellius B: 13.4° above the horizontal, 13.3 km away at azimuth 201°.
- Farthest visible point
- 15.2 km away at azimuth 137°, 10.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,951 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 57.2° high at azimuth 328°, 45.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:42:56 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.
