Horizon from Briggs B
28.1547° N, 70.9066° W · cell 14RGV
- Highest horizon point
- Briggs B: 11.4° above the horizontal, 11.4 km away at azimuth 172°.
- Farthest visible point
- 13.3 km away at azimuth 84°, 8.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,570 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 17.6° under it at azimuth 82°. At 2026-10-22 16:15:45 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.
