Horizon from d'Alembert J
47.3313° N, 170.3008° E · cell 44TGC
- Highest horizon point
- d'Alembert J: 16.4° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 233°.
- Farthest visible point
- 10.4 km away at azimuth 97°, 13.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 165 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 28.3° under it at azimuth 303°. At 2026-10-22 17:09:01 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.
