Horizon view
Horizon from Scoresby P
75.8893° N, 12.7811° E · cell 25XEM
- Highest horizon point
- Scoresby P: 6.5° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 311°.
- Farthest visible point
- 39.8 km away at azimuth 106°, 0.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 859 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 11.2° high at azimuth 153°, 11.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:49:10 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.
