It all depends on how high you are.
From Wikipedia.
When looking straight out say at a ship receding from a harbor with normal vision you would loose sight of the ship about 13 miles from the harbor. This is where the curvature of the earth would drop it off of the straight line of sight.
You certainly must be aware that the distance depends on your height above the
ground. If you want to see farther, you climb a tree or look out of an upstairs window.
The distance also depends on the atmospheric conditions, and the shape of the terrain
in the direction you're looking.
If we ignore those unpredictable factors, and consider the earth to be a simple
sphere, then we can give you the following rules from geometry only:
In metric units:
(Distance)km = 3.57 times sqrt(h) . . . 'h' is your height above ground, in meters
In imperial "customary" units:
(Distance)miles = sqrt(1.5 h) . . . 'h' is your height above ground, in feet
93,000,000 miles away
it 36000000000
There are many things that horizon A and horizon B could form. These things include slopes and lines for example.
About 93 million
A horizon and one can be seen from every point on Earth.
At 100ft, the horizon is approx 12 miles away.
41.15 miles
The distance in kilometers to the horizon is the square root of (13 X observers height in meters) so for a 1.8 meter person standing on the seashore the horizon is about 5 km away. For someone on a jet at 10,000 meters the horizon is 360 km away.
I'm not certain that it matters just how tall you are, but at sea level I think the horizon is about 7 miles away.....
Yes but only the horizon. can't really make anything out but land far away. An amazing sight.

It is 93,000,000 miles away from the sun.
Venus is 25,809,000 miles away from Earth.
8000 miles away. That was easy.
93 million miles away from the earth
about 228 million miles about 228 million miles away
