Horizon view
Horizon from Geminus N
31.4126° N, 47.7290° E · cell 29RED
- Highest horizon point
- Geminus N: 9.2° above the horizontal, 11.4 km away at azimuth 359°.
- Farthest visible point
- 19.9 km away at azimuth 195°, 2.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 828 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 56.0° high at azimuth 197°, 53.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:42:11 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.
