Horizon view
Horizon from Vasco da Gama C
11.4825° N, 85.0665° W · cell 12PJD
- Highest horizon point
- Vasco da Gama C: 11.4° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 347°.
- Farthest visible point
- 30.3 km away at azimuth 108°, 1.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,102 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 34.2° under it at azimuth 84°. At 2026-10-22 13:49:07 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.
