Horizon view
Horizon from Newcomb F
31.4173° N, 42.6290° E · cell 28RHU
- Highest horizon point
- Newcomb F: 10.7° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 345°.
- Farthest visible point
- 41.7 km away at azimuth 133°, 0.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 708 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 57.0° high at azimuth 187°, 53.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:39:27 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.
