Horizon view
Horizon from Mandel'shtam T
5.5489° N, 160.4051° E · cell 43NFG
- Highest horizon point
- Mandel'shtam T: 7.9° above the horizontal, 18.9 km away at azimuth 257°.
- Farthest visible point
- 82.4 km away at azimuth 3°, 1.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 777 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 31.5° under it at azimuth 272°. At 2026-10-22 15:17:20 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.
