Horizon view
Horizon from Kekulé
16.3094° N, 138.4661° W · cell 6QCK
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 5.2° above the horizontal, 47.4 km away at azimuth 314°.
- Farthest visible point
- 51.2 km away at azimuth 131°, 3.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,684 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 75.0° under it at azimuth 2°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:47 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.
