Horizon view
Horizon from Euctemon N
75.4143° N, 32.9511° E · cell 27XFB
- Highest horizon point
- Euctemon N: 23.8° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 240°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 36°, 18.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,728 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 13.2° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 175° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 21.8°. At 2026-10-22 17:57:58 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.
