Horizon from Helberg H
21.8041° N, 101.3211° W · cell 10QJG
- Highest horizon point
- Helberg H: 8.2° above the horizontal, 12.3 km away at azimuth 167°.
- Farthest visible point
- 16.1 km away at azimuth 66°, 6.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 860 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 46.6° under it at azimuth 67°. At 2026-10-22 14:33:54 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.
