Horizon view
Horizon from Mandel'shtam
5.6977° N, 162.3877° E · cell 43NHG
- Highest horizon point
- Mandel'shtam: 7.1° above the horizontal, 31.3 km away at azimuth 158°.
- Farthest visible point
- 35.1 km away at azimuth 110°, 5.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,704 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 31.3° under it at azimuth 272°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:31 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.
