Horizon view
Horizon from Watt T
51.7817° S, 51.1417° E · cell 29FHC
- Highest horizon point
- Watt T: 11.5° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 272°.
- Farthest visible point
- 1.90 km away at azimuth 0°, 10.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,841 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 38.3° high at azimuth 342°, 27.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:24:21 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.
