Horizon view
Horizon from Heaviside N
11.7779° S, 166.5551° E · cell 44LDL
- Highest horizon point
- Heaviside N: 9.0° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 341°.
- Farthest visible point
- 66.3 km away at azimuth 274°, 4.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,824 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 35.9° under it at azimuth 260°. At 2026-10-22 14:25:19 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.
