Horizon view
Horizon from Alhazen D
19.6799° N, 75.1747° E · cell 32QJJ
- Highest horizon point
- Alhazen D: 11.6° above the horizontal, 16.1 km away at azimuth 247°.
- Farthest visible point
- 17.1 km away at azimuth 240°, 11.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,883 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 48.3° high at azimuth 244°, 36.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:17:17 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.
