Horizon view
Horizon from Agatharchides N
21.0917° S, 29.7164° W · cell 19KHQ
- Highest horizon point
- Agatharchides N: 5.7° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 317°.
- Farthest visible point
- 15.2 km away at azimuth 177°, 1.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,991 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 20.0° high at azimuth 83°, 19.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:33:37 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.

- 118° Agatharchides P, 12.3 km away, 3.3° high, 751 m above the ground here
A ray every 0.5 degrees out to 200 km across the NASA LRO LOLA terrain, the curvature of the Moon included; each peak is named only when an IAU feature's mapped footprint lies over the point that forms it. Smooth terrain between samples, no boulders.
