Horizon from Gerard A
45.0827° N, 82.2674° W · cell 13TDQ
- Highest horizon point
- Gerard A: 16.7° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 339°.
- Farthest visible point
- 9.48 km away at azimuth 32°, 14.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,715 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 23.1° under it at azimuth 67°. At 2026-10-22 13:30:10 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.
