Horizon view
Horizon from Boscovich P
11.4688° N, 10.3089° E · cell 24PHD
- Highest horizon point
- Boscovich P: 3.5° above the horizontal, 12.3 km away at azimuth 288°.
- Farthest visible point
- 35.1 km away at azimuth 168°, 0.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,139 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 56.9° high at azimuth 111°, 56.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:23 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.
