Horizon view
Horizon from Tyndall S
35.4563° S, 116.3943° E · cell 38HBB
- Highest horizon point
- Tyndall S: 10.4° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 253°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 28°, 7.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 71 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 11.7° high at azimuth 277°, 3.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:31:02 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.
