Horizon view
Horizon from Wilhelm Q
43.2005° S, 18.4420° W · cell 21GCT
- Highest horizon point
- Wilhelm Q: 10.0° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 283°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 168°, 9.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 198 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 23.6° high at azimuth 68°, 16.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:31:24 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.
