Horizon view
Horizon from Petermann
74.3468° N, 67.8923° E · cell 31XGL
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 4.8° above the horizontal, 37.0 km away at azimuth 73°.
- Farthest visible point
- 46.4 km away at azimuth 256°, 3.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,835 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 12.6° high at azimuth 208°, 9.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:21 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.
