Horizon view
Horizon from Mitra
17.7644° N, 154.6514° W · cell 4QBB
- Highest horizon point
- Mitra: 9.8° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 303°.
- Farthest visible point
- 54.0 km away at azimuth 251°, 2.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,116 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 67.5° under it at azimuth 315°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:12 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.
