Horizon view
Horizon from Vieta
29.3106° S, 56.5269° W · cell 16JEE
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 5.2° above the horizontal, 46.4 km away at azimuth 59°.
- Farthest visible point
- 52.1 km away at azimuth 238°, 2.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,224 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 5.6° under it at azimuth 95°. At 2026-10-22 11:54:41 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.
