Horizon view
Horizon from Sumner G
37.4194° N, 110.4162° E · cell 37SDF
- Highest horizon point
- Sumner G: 20.8° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 305°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 29°, 19.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,706 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 13.4° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 258° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 18.7°. At 2026-10-22 16:14:21 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.
