Horizon from Airy V

17.4979° S, 9.1365° E · cell 24KGJ

Highest horizon point
Airy V: 9.1° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 205°.
Farthest visible point
63.5 km away at azimuth 21°, -1.1° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 603 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 60.1° high at azimuth 60°, 56.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 23:36:57 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.

Peaks on the skyline

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.
