Horizon view
Horizon from Timiryazev P
7.4978° S, 148.0724° W · cell 4MKL
- Highest horizon point
- Timiryazev P: 13.7° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 184°.
- Farthest visible point
- 11.4 km away at azimuth 327°, 7.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,325 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 78.2° under it at azimuth 222°. At 2026-10-22 13:30:02 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.
