Horizon view
Horizon from Archytas D
63.7066° N, 11.8975° E · cell 24VHH
- Highest horizon point
- Archytas D: 4.1° above the horizontal, 20.9 km away at azimuth 88°.
- Farthest visible point
- 55.9 km away at azimuth 209°, 0.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,758 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 22.4° high at azimuth 153°, 20.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:24:28 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.
