Horizon view
Horizon from Goldschmidt
73.0367° N, 3.3686° W · cell 23XDP
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 2.0° above the horizontal, 60.6 km away at azimuth 167°.
- Farthest visible point
- 74.9 km away at azimuth 128°, 1.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,222 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 10.7° high at azimuth 135°, 9.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:49 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.
