Horizon from Dufay Y
8.2695° N, 168.6340° E · cell 44PFR
- Highest horizon point
- Dufay Y: 14.6° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 162°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 19°, 12.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 677 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 41.4° under it at azimuth 276°. At 2026-10-22 19:05:11 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.
