Horizon view
Horizon from Eddington
21.5025° N, 72.0175° W · cell 14QEM
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 1.4° above the horizontal, 62.5 km away at azimuth 278°.
- Farthest visible point
- 74.9 km away at azimuth 329°, 0.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,856 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 21.5° under it at azimuth 83°. At 2026-10-22 11:54:44 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.
