Horizon view
Horizon from Sinas
8.8511° N, 31.6001° E · cell 27PEA
- Highest horizon point
- Sinas: 20.2° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 16°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 0°, 19.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,608 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 78.2° high at azimuth 150°, 60.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:58:02 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.
