Horizon from Van de Graaff J
28.2778° S, 174.0883° E · cell 45JCR
- Highest horizon point
- Van de Graaff J: 13.1° above the horizontal, 12.3 km away at azimuth 232°.
- Farthest visible point
- 13.3 km away at azimuth 141°, 9.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,234 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 37.2° under it at azimuth 244°. At 2026-10-22 13:44:52 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.
