Horizon view
Horizon from Walther C
31.2047° S, 0.8486° W · cell 23JEH
- Highest horizon point
- Walther C: 17.0° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 37°.
- Farthest visible point
- 18.9 km away at azimuth 317°, 3.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 51 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 43.6° high at azimuth 57°, 26.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:24:30 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.
