Horizon view
Horizon from Bianchini
48.7814° N, 34.3739° W · cell 19UDV
- Highest horizon point
- Bianchini: 11.5° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 91°.
- Farthest visible point
- 20.9 km away at azimuth 205°, 7.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,473 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 9.9° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 104° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 11.0°. At 2026-10-22 15:16:37 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.
