Horizon view
Horizon from Poncelet C
77.5614° N, 74.5038° W · cell 14XEU
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 5.0° above the horizontal, 34.1 km away at azimuth 109°.
- Farthest visible point
- 47.4 km away at azimuth 159°, 3.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,182 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 6.7° under it at azimuth 65°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:01 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.
