Horizon view
Horizon from Schwabe
65.1032° N, 45.4808° E · cell 29WDD
- Highest horizon point
- Schwabe: 8.1° above the horizontal, 15.2 km away at azimuth 153°.
- Farthest visible point
- 38.9 km away at azimuth 200°, 1.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,862 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 23.2° high at azimuth 190°, 18.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:42:54 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.
