Horizon view
Horizon from Harriot
33.1985° N, 114.3960° E · cell 37SHA
- Highest horizon point
- Harriot: 14.5° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 209°.
- Farthest visible point
- 27.5 km away at azimuth 22°, 10.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,651 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 13.1° high at azimuth 260°, 0.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:10 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.
