Horizon view
Horizon from Millikan
46.7599° N, 121.5152° E · cell 38TGB
- Highest horizon point
- Millikan: 6.0° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 261°.
- Farthest visible point
- 53.1 km away at azimuth 185°, 3.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,433 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is on the skyline at azimuth 262°: part of its disc shows above the terrain (5.5° high, the skyline 5.6°). At 2026-10-22 11:05:25 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.
