Horizon from Scoresby M
75.5737° N, 8.1546° E · cell 24XFB
- Highest horizon point
- Scoresby P: 2.3° above the horizontal, 28.4 km away at azimuth 57°.
- Farthest visible point
- 91.0 km away at azimuth 202°, 0.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,097 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 10.7° high at azimuth 146°, 10.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:38 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.
