Horizon view
Horizon from Vlacq G
55.0044° S, 38.0119° E · cell 28FDP
- Highest horizon point
- Vlacq G: 9.5° above the horizontal, 13.3 km away at azimuth 292°.
- Farthest visible point
- 18.0 km away at azimuth 192°, 6.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,080 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 36.4° high at azimuth 0°, 35.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:17:16 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.
