Horizon view
Horizon from Watt M
53.2039° S, 59.7641° E · cell 30FHF
- Highest horizon point
- Watt M: 7.6° above the horizontal, 21.8 km away at azimuth 258°.
- Farthest visible point
- 28.4 km away at azimuth 215°, 3.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,349 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 35.7° high at azimuth 336°, 29.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 12:43:11 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.
