Horizon view
Horizon from Geminus Z
30.7175° N, 46.6351° E · cell 29RDC
- Highest horizon point
- Geminus Z: 6.4° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 90°.
- Farthest visible point
- 66.3 km away at azimuth 273°, 0.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,064 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 57.0° high at azimuth 195°, 54.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:17:03 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.
