Horizon view
Horizon from Cockcroft
31.0913° N, 162.9081° W · cell 3RBH
- Highest horizon point
- Cockcroft: 12.5° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 229°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 0°, 5.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 32 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 52.6° under it at azimuth 318°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:25 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.
