Horizon view
Horizon from Parsons D
38.3290° N, 168.6922° W · cell 2SEM
- Highest horizon point
- Parsons D: 8.9° above the horizontal, 22.7 km away at azimuth 150°.
- Farthest visible point
- 27.5 km away at azimuth 53°, 5.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,413 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 44.1° under it at azimuth 316°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:07 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.
