Horizon from Vasco da Gama F
13.8620° N, 80.7807° W · cell 13PES
- Highest horizon point
- Vasco da Gama F: 3.0° above the horizontal, 25.6 km away at azimuth 227°.
- Farthest visible point
- 46.4 km away at azimuth 273°, 1.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,324 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 30.4° under it at azimuth 83°. At 2026-10-22 12:43:22 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.
