- Stratton U: 17.3° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 90°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 166°, 13.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 687 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 33.8° under it at azimuth 265°. At 2026-10-22 16:16:22 UTC, when this page was served.
