Horizon view
Horizon from Vendelinus D
19.0487° S, 58.2390° E · cell 30KHG
- Highest horizon point
- Vendelinus D: 7.8° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 94°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 41°, 7.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,458 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 61.8° high at azimuth 306°, 56.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 21:21:54 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.
