Horizon view
Horizon from Yablochkov
60.7758° N, 127.5758° E · cell 39VED
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 5.5° above the horizontal, 42.6 km away at azimuth 91°.
- Farthest visible point
- 55.9 km away at azimuth 303°, 3.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,366 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 0.5° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 266° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 4.1°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:32 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.
Vertical scale exaggerated 5x (horizontal 4 px per degree). Eye 2 m above the ground.Scroll sideways to turn; the middle faces 91°.
