Horizon view
Horizon from Vavilov P
3.6735° S, 140.6722° W · cell 5MKA
- Highest horizon point
- Vavilov P: 13.7° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 344°.
- Farthest visible point
- 12.3 km away at azimuth 104°, 13.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,720 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 85.0° under it at azimuth 184°. At 2026-10-22 13:45:02 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.
