Horizon view
Horizon from Weinek
27.5651° S, 37.0614° E · cell 28JBG
- Highest horizon point
- Weinek: 10.6° above the horizontal, 15.2 km away at azimuth 72°.
- Farthest visible point
- 17.1 km away at azimuth 123°, 8.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,296 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 63.8° high at azimuth 359°, 55.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:43:01 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.
