Horizon view
Horizon from Edison
24.8805° N, 99.2680° E · cell 35RJR
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 4.0° above the horizontal, 37.0 km away at azimuth 1°.
- Farthest visible point
- 61.6 km away at azimuth 293°, 1.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,222 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 27.9° high at azimuth 254°, 25.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:07 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.
