Horizon view
Horizon from King Y
6.5005° N, 119.7505° E · cell 38NEN
- Highest horizon point
- King Y: 5.9° above the horizontal, 15.2 km away at azimuth 145°.
- Farthest visible point
- 69.2 km away at azimuth 187°, 2.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,612 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 6.9° high at azimuth 268°, 2.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:24:29 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.
