Horizon view
Horizon from Crookes
10.3961° S, 165.1024° W · cell 2LJN
- Highest horizon point
- Crookes: 11.5° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 54°.
- Farthest visible point
- 27.5 km away at azimuth 3°, 8.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,395 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 65.2° under it at azimuth 243°. At 2026-10-22 19:24:13 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.
