Horizon view
Horizon from Wilhelm N
43.7790° S, 18.5845° W · cell 21GCS
- Highest horizon point
- Wilhelm N: 14.0° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 355°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 133°, 8.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 178 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 24.6° high at azimuth 66°, 13.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:28:41 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.
