Horizon view
Horizon from Tucker
5.6198° S, 88.2091° E · cell 34MFP
- Highest horizon point
- Tucker: 13.6° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 6°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 50°, 9.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,184 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 39.0° high at azimuth 273°, 28.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:35:41 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.
