Horizon view
Horizon from Mason A
42.9209° N, 30.1318° E · cell 27TDC
- Highest horizon point
- Mason: 11.6° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 322°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 319°, 11.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,215 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 44.9° high at azimuth 166°, 41.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:30:12 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.
