Horizon from Boss B
52.0229° N, 78.1281° E · cell 33UDP
- Highest horizon point
- Boss B: 23.9° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 258°.
- Farthest visible point
- 7.58 km away at azimuth 161°, 19.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 5,183 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 26.3° high at azimuth 227°, 3.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:24:34 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.
