Horizon view
Horizon from Wilhelm A
44.6989° S, 22.1135° W · cell 20GGL
- Highest horizon point
- Lagalla: 18.8° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 90°.
- Farthest visible point
- 10.4 km away at azimuth 30°, 14.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,809 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 20.6° high at azimuth 70°, 2.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:31:13 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.
