Horizon view
Horizon from Watt K
51.5278° S, 55.9968° E · cell 30FEH
- Highest horizon point
- Watt K: 22.2° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 14°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 0°, 21.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,061 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 37.6° high at azimuth 337°, 16.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:56:57 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.
