Horizon view
Horizon from Apollonius S
1.2602° N, 62.5812° E · cell 31NDB
- Highest horizon point
- Apollonius S: 7.3° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 156°.
- Farthest visible point
- 10.4 km away at azimuth 59°, 4.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,698 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 68.1° high at azimuth 263°, 63.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:35:23 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.
