Horizon view
Horizon from Ingalls U
26.9753° N, 156.3925° W · cell 3RJC
- Highest horizon point
- Ingalls U: 13.8° above the horizontal, 13.3 km away at azimuth 151°.
- Farthest visible point
- 20.9 km away at azimuth 8°, 7.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,951 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 61.2° under it at azimuth 331°. At 2026-10-22 18:24:16 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.
