Horizon view
Horizon from Vendelinus H
15.2995° S, 61.5031° E · cell 31LCB
- Highest horizon point
- Vendelinus H: 13.2° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 253°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 106°, 9.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,408 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 63.3° high at azimuth 299°, 52.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:17:03 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.
