Horizon view
Horizon from Sömmering R
1.8761° N, 9.8744° W · cell 22NCC
- Highest horizon point
- Sömmering R: 7.9° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 84°.
- Farthest visible point
- 22.7 km away at azimuth 201°, 0.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,085 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 41.3° high at azimuth 93°, 34.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:39:30 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.
