Horizon view
Horizon from Firsov S
3.3392° N, 110.2690° E · cell 37NCE
- Highest horizon point
- Firsov Q: 6.8° above the horizontal, 37.9 km away at azimuth 154°.
- Farthest visible point
- 78.7 km away at azimuth 24°, 1.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,750 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 20.6° high at azimuth 267°, 15.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:15 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.
