Horizon view
Horizon from De Sitter W
79.5064° N, 53.0359° E · cell 30XEG
- Highest horizon point
- De Sitter W: 5.2° above the horizontal, 0.08 km away at azimuth 67°.
- Farthest visible point
- 33.6 km away at azimuth 210°, 3.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,102 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 8.8° high at azimuth 195°, 5.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:08:54 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 160 m at this point and about 1.9 km at the farthest samples; nearby foreground relief is smoothed at the coarser tiers, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
