Horizon from Shternberg (Sternberg) C
20.8533° N, 114.7395° W · cell 9QBR
- Highest horizon point
- Shternberg (Sternberg) C: 12.3° above the horizontal, 11.4 km away at azimuth 211°.
- Farthest visible point
- 16.1 km away at azimuth 123°, 6.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 886 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 58.3° under it at azimuth 55°. At 2026-10-22 13:49:05 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.
