Horizon view
Horizon from Wilhelm B
43.5415° S, 22.8479° W · cell 20GGN
- Highest horizon point
- Wilhelm B: 16.9° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 322°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 11°, 10.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,039 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 20.4° high at azimuth 71°, 11.3° 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.
