Horizon view
Horizon from Carrel
10.6655° N, 26.6796° E · cell 26PJT
- Highest horizon point
- Carrel: 15.3° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 153°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 64°, 11.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,886 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 73.0° high at azimuth 134°, 58.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:38:28 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.
