Horizon view
Horizon from Mendeleev P
2.3441° N, 139.8093° E · cell 40NKC
- Highest horizon point
- Mendeleev P: 12.2° above the horizontal, 14.2 km away at azimuth 132°.
- Farthest visible point
- 15.2 km away at azimuth 28°, 9.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,081 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 10.0° under it at azimuth 269°. At 2026-10-22 13:30:42 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.
