Horizon view
Horizon from Cusanus
71.8208° N, 69.4004° E · cell 32WEN
- Highest horizon point
- Cusanus: 7.7° above the horizontal, 31.3 km away at azimuth 200°.
- Farthest visible point
- 35.1 km away at azimuth 72°, 6.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,135 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 14.6° high at azimuth 209°, 7.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:04:59 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.
