Horizon view
Horizon from Thales E
57.2096° N, 43.2253° E · cell 28VHK
- Highest horizon point
- Thales E: 3.2° above the horizontal, 14.2 km away at azimuth 326°.
- Farthest visible point
- 28.4 km away at azimuth 258°, 0.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,090 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 31.3° high at azimuth 185°, 29.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:38:24 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.
