Horizon view
Horizon from Young R
42.4343° S, 55.3908° E · cell 30GEU
- Highest horizon point
- Young R: 13.8° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 349°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 0°, 13.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,986 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 45.6° high at azimuth 333°, 32.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:43:08 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.
