Horizon view
Horizon from Jackson Q
20.8273° N, 165.1526° W · cell 2QJL
- Highest horizon point
- Jackson Q: 19.8° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 238°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 17°, 18.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,675 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 59.9° under it at azimuth 307°. At 2026-10-22 16:15:43 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.
