Horizon view
Horizon from Firsov V
5.0044° N, 111.2047° E · cell 37NEG
- Highest horizon point
- Firsov V: 8.5° above the horizontal, 17.1 km away at azimuth 66°.
- Farthest visible point
- 22.7 km away at azimuth 142°, 7.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,139 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 15.9° high at azimuth 267°, 9.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:23:54 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.
