Horizon from Shternberg (Sternberg)
19.3773° N, 116.8186° W · cell 8QJJ
- Highest horizon point
- Shternberg (Sternberg): 7.0° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 298°.
- Farthest visible point
- 49.3 km away at azimuth 86°, 2.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 88 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 60.9° under it at azimuth 55°. At 2026-10-22 13:31:19 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.
