42.4210° N, 60.8092° E · cell 31TCM
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 3.1° above the horizontal, 34.1 km away at azimuth 181°.
- Farthest visible point
- 43.6 km away at azimuth 247°, 0.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,292 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 42.7° high at azimuth 207°, 40.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:23 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.
