Horizon view
Horizon from Wilhelm
43.2127° S, 20.9406° W · cell 20GHN
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 3.9° above the horizontal, 48.3 km away at azimuth 151°.
- Farthest visible point
- 62.5 km away at azimuth 37°, 1.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,291 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 21.0° high at azimuth 71°, 19.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:58 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.
