Horizon view
Horizon from Copernicus N
6.9132° N, 23.3111° W · cell 20NFP
- Highest horizon point
- Copernicus N: 3.9° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 332°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 49°, 1.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 913 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 29.6° high at azimuth 96°, 27.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:43:06 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.
