Horizon view
Horizon from Bell
21.9782° N, 96.5318° W · cell 11QEM
- Highest horizon point
- Bell: 8.1° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 160°.
- Farthest visible point
- 54.0 km away at azimuth 22°, 2.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,833 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 43.9° under it at azimuth 69°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:13 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.
