Horizon view
Horizon from Vlacq D
48.7271° S, 36.1677° E · cell 28FBA
- Highest horizon point
- Vlacq D: 9.5° above the horizontal, 17.1 km away at azimuth 63°.
- Farthest visible point
- 17.1 km away at azimuth 0°, 8.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,576 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 42.6° high at azimuth 0°, 34.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 20:27:18 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.
