Horizon from Olbers N
9.0328° N, 79.8223° W · cell 13PFL
- Highest horizon point
- Olbers N: 9.0° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 354°.
- Farthest visible point
- 13.3 km away at azimuth 162°, 3.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,947 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 27.6° under it at azimuth 87°. At 2026-10-22 17:09:17 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.
