Horizon view
Horizon from d'Alembert
51.0723° N, 164.8907° E · cell 44UCG
- Highest horizon point
- d'Alembert: 3.0° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 93°.
- Farthest visible point
- 55.0 km away at azimuth 236°, 0.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,537 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 21.6° under it at azimuth 297°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:55 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.
