Question 243Navigation General

The correct answer is A) the maximum distance at which a light may be seen under existing visibility conditions. Luminous range is the maximum distance at which a light can be seen under the prevailing visibility conditions. It takes into account factors such as the intensity of the light, the atmospheric conditions, and the height of the light and the observer. The luminous range is not the average distance of visibility (B) or the maximum distance in clear weather (C), and it does not depend solely on the height of the light and observer (D).
