- Egede: 2.0° above the horizontal, 17.1 km away at azimuth 179°.
- Farthest visible point
- 66.3 km away at azimuth 97°, 0.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,762 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 34.7° high at azimuth 146°, 33.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:28:07 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.
