Horizon view
Horizon from Vieta D
27.8361° S, 54.2975° W · cell 16JGG
- Highest horizon point
- Vieta D: 7.1° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 107°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 0°, 4.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,494 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 2.0° under it at azimuth 93°. At 2026-10-22 15:38:35 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.
