Horizon view
Horizon from Frost N
34.7230° N, 119.5550° W · cell 8SFH
- Highest horizon point
- Frost N: 7.8° above the horizontal, 20.9 km away at azimuth 179°.
- Farthest visible point
- 23.7 km away at azimuth 16°, 6.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 98 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 51.5° under it at azimuth 34°. At 2026-10-22 13:30:58 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.
