Horizon view
Horizon from Thales F
59.3736° N, 42.0823° E · cell 28VGM
- Highest horizon point
- Thales F: 2.7° above the horizontal, 18.0 km away at azimuth 38°.
- Farthest visible point
- 28.4 km away at azimuth 302°, 1.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,916 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 29.1° high at azimuth 186°, 27.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:42:53 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.
