Horizon view
Horizon from Brayley
20.8963° N, 36.9373° W · cell 18QJR
- Highest horizon point
- Brayley: 21.7° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 291°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 6°, 18.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,835 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 14.0° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 97° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 19.3°. At 2026-10-22 17:57:36 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.
