Horizon view
Horizon from T. Mayer W
17.5667° N, 34.9642° W · cell 19QBB
- Highest horizon point
- T. Mayer W: 0.7° above the horizontal, 17.1 km away at azimuth 71°.
- Farthest visible point
- 18.0 km away at azimuth 35°, 0.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,244 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 15.8° high at azimuth 97°, 15.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:09:11 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.
