Horizon view
Horizon from Maury U
39.3065° N, 37.0670° E · cell 28SCH
- Highest horizon point
- Maury U: 10.1° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 59°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 245°, 3.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,832 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 49.3° high at azimuth 180°, 44.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:35:41 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.
