Horizon view
Horizon from Sanford C
33.8732° N, 137.3838° W · cell 6SDM
- Highest horizon point
- Sanford C: 17.3° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 358°.
- Farthest visible point
- 9.48 km away at azimuth 109°, 14.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,189 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 57.3° under it at azimuth 6°. At 2026-10-22 14:25:34 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.
