Horizon view
Horizon from Morozov
4.6188° N, 127.3264° E · cell 39NER
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 8.8° above the horizontal, 24.6 km away at azimuth 60°.
- Farthest visible point
- 47.4 km away at azimuth 335°, 5.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,986 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 0.1° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 269° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 4.3°. At 2026-10-22 17:58:02 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.
