Horizon view
Horizon from Cusanus A
70.5809° N, 63.9585° E · cell 31WEF
- Highest horizon point
- Cusanus A: 9.6° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 9°.
- Farthest visible point
- 39.8 km away at azimuth 77°, 2.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,138 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 16.3° high at azimuth 206°, 14.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:25:11 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.
