Horizon view
Horizon from Korolev B
3.6551° S, 156.2861° W · cell 3MKF
- Highest horizon point
- Korolev: 14.2° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 260°.
- Farthest visible point
- 12.3 km away at azimuth 199°, 10.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 795 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 74.9° under it at azimuth 251°. At 2026-10-22 17:09:05 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.
