Horizon view
Horizon from Plato P
51.5336° N, 15.2121° W · cell 21UFN
- Highest horizon point
- Plato P: 19.6° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 67°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 0°, 18.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,956 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 20.0° high at azimuth 120°, 2.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:25:17 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.
