Horizon view
Horizon from Goddard B
16.1263° N, 86.9378° E · cell 34QDV
- Highest horizon point
- Goddard B: 19.7° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 289°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 31°, 18.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,754 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 39.8° high at azimuth 254°, 20.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:33:24 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.
