Horizon view
Horizon from Archytas K
62.6623° N, 7.6794° E · cell 24VEF
- Highest horizon point
- Archytas K: 6.1° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 358°.
- Farthest visible point
- 35.1 km away at azimuth 194°, 1.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,210 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 22.0° high at azimuth 147°, 20.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:56:52 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.
