Horizon view
Horizon from Chernyshev
47.0115° N, 174.4078° E · cell 45TDG
- Highest horizon point
- Chernyshev: 10.4° above the horizontal, 29.4 km away at azimuth 241°.
- Farthest visible point
- 32.2 km away at azimuth 126°, 7.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,860 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 29.7° under it at azimuth 305°. At 2026-10-22 13:31:16 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.
