Horizon view
Horizon from Turner Q
0.9996° S, 12.4663° W · cell 21MKJ
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 1.1° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 26°.
- Farthest visible point
- 22.7 km away at azimuth 255°, 0.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,066 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 36.5° high at azimuth 91°, 35.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:16 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.
