Horizon view
Horizon from Michael
25.0494° N, 0.2146° E · cell 23RFR
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 12.2° above the horizontal, 3.32 km away at azimuth 49°.
- Farthest visible point
- 11.1 km away at azimuth 246°, 6.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,124 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 44.2° high at azimuth 119°, 39.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:16:22 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 474 m at this point and about 1.9 km at the farthest samples; nearby foreground relief is smoothed at the coarser tiers, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
