Horizon view
Horizon from Rowland K
51.0219° N, 157.2293° W · cell 3UHM
- Highest horizon point
- Rowland K: 13.8° above the horizontal, 11.4 km away at azimuth 292°.
- Farthest visible point
- 17.1 km away at azimuth 21°, 8.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 675 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 38.4° under it at azimuth 339°. At 2026-10-22 14:33:39 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.
