Horizon from Henyey
12.6985° N, 152.3253° W · cell 4PER
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 6.3° above the horizontal, 38.9 km away at azimuth 53°.
- Farthest visible point
- 42.6 km away at azimuth 108°, 4.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,915 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 72.6° under it at azimuth 310°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:50 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.
