Horizon view
Horizon from Mason C
42.9012° N, 33.8720° E · cell 27TGC
- Highest horizon point
- Mason C: 22.7° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 326°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 0°, 22.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,090 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 45.6° high at azimuth 175°, 25.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:42:31 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.
