Horizon view
Horizon from Zernike Z
21.2239° N, 168.2084° E · cell 44QFL
- Highest horizon point
- Zernike Z: 13.7° above the horizontal, 12.3 km away at azimuth 62°.
- Farthest visible point
- 14.2 km away at azimuth 130°, 11.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,186 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 37.6° under it at azimuth 286°. At 2026-10-22 17:08:44 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.
