Horizon view
Horizon from Kirchhoff G
29.7907° N, 40.2896° E · cell 28RFS
- Highest horizon point
- Kirchhoff G: 6.6° above the horizontal, 11.4 km away at azimuth 72°.
- Farthest visible point
- 23.7 km away at azimuth 136°, 1.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 453 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 58.7° high at azimuth 186°, 57.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:19:40 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.
