Horizon view
Horizon from Angström
29.8957° N, 41.6674° W · cell 18RDG
- Highest horizon point
- Angström: 20.9° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 67°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 127°, 19.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,361 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 7.9° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 96° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 19.8°. At 2026-10-22 16:14:20 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.
