Horizon view
Horizon from Mitra A
20.5956° N, 154.1518° W · cell 4QCE
- Highest horizon point
- Mitra A: 9.8° above the horizontal, 20.9 km away at azimuth 185°.
- Farthest visible point
- 24.6 km away at azimuth 32°, 4.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,491 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 67.6° under it at azimuth 328°. At 2026-10-22 17:57:34 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.
