Horizon view
Horizon from Vendelinus L
17.5626° S, 61.7872° E · cell 31KCU
- Highest horizon point
- Vendelinus: 5.2° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 359°.
- Farthest visible point
- 39.8 km away at azimuth 201°, 2.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,787 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 61.5° high at azimuth 302°, 58.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:09:10 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.
