Horizon view
Horizon from Petermann R
74.7794° N, 55.6071° E · cell 30XEA
- Highest horizon point
- Baillaud D: 1.6° above the horizontal, 62.5 km away at azimuth 229°.
- Farthest visible point
- 75.8 km away at azimuth 152°, -0.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,412 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 13.4° high at azimuth 195°, 13.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:11 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.
