Horizon view
Horizon from Henyey U
13.6043° N, 153.5991° W · cell 4PDS
- Highest horizon point
- Henyey U: 7.5° above the horizontal, 22.7 km away at azimuth 66°.
- Farthest visible point
- 28.4 km away at azimuth 342°, 4.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,331 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 73.5° under it at azimuth 317°. At 2026-10-22 17:58:00 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.
