Horizon view
Horizon from Carnot
52.0938° N, 144.2026° W · cell 5UEJ
- Highest horizon point
- Carnot: 5.5° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 164°.
- Farthest visible point
- 73.0 km away at azimuth 231°, 2.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 298 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 39.1° under it at azimuth 353°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:23 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.
