Horizon view
Horizon from Wilkins G
29.9869° S, 18.4053° E · cell 25JHD
- Highest horizon point
- Wilkins G: 8.7° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 247°.
- Farthest visible point
- 11.4 km away at azimuth 157°, 6.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,390 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 55.0° high at azimuth 39°, 47.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:49:18 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.
