Horizon view
Horizon from Spurr
27.9112° N, 1.2695° W · cell 23RDU
- Highest horizon point
- Spurr: 1.4° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 152°.
- Farthest visible point
- 61.6 km away at azimuth 332°, -0.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,964 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 40.0° high at azimuth 119°, 39.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:57 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.
