Horizon view
Horizon from Vlacq K
51.2910° S, 36.6623° E · cell 28FCT
- Highest horizon point
- Vlacq K: 20.4° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 223°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 0°, 17.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,388 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 40.0° high at azimuth 2°, 22.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:17:08 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.
