Horizon view
Horizon from Comstock
21.5916° N, 122.0502° W · cell 8QCM
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 5.4° above the horizontal, 36.0 km away at azimuth 185°.
- Farthest visible point
- 45.5 km away at azimuth 172°, 3.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 163 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 63.9° under it at azimuth 41°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:04 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.
