Horizon view
Horizon from Desargues M
68.4155° N, 74.4163° W · cell 14WDH
- Highest horizon point
- Desargues M: 10.5° above the horizontal, 14.2 km away at azimuth 322°.
- Farthest visible point
- 15.2 km away at azimuth 316°, 10.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,911 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 9.8° under it at azimuth 68°. At 2026-10-22 14:25:22 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.
