Horizon view
Horizon from Moissan
4.7708° N, 137.4486° E · cell 40NGF
- Highest horizon point
- Moissan: 16.1° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 220°.
- Farthest visible point
- 10.4 km away at azimuth 40°, 12.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,039 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 7.8° under it at azimuth 269°. At 2026-10-22 13:34:16 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.
