Horizon view
Horizon from Congreve U
0.4039° N, 170.7518° W · cell 2NBF
- Highest horizon point
- Congreve U: 9.1° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 272°.
- Farthest visible point
- 48.3 km away at azimuth 83°, 4.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,805 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 58.2° under it at azimuth 268°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:03 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.
