Horizon view
Horizon from Apollonius F
5.5992° N, 59.9382° E · cell 30NKS
- Highest horizon point
- Apollonius F: 18.2° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 108°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 48°, 13.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,228 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 66.5° high at azimuth 253°, 55.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:04:56 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.
