Horizon view
Horizon from Alpetragius X
15.6089° S, 5.7361° W · cell 22LHB
- Highest horizon point
- Alpetragius X: 3.3° above the horizontal, 17.1 km away at azimuth 95°.
- Farthest visible point
- 56.9 km away at azimuth 16°, 0.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,635 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 45.7° high at azimuth 75°, 43.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:24:39 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
- 95° Alpetragius X, 17.1 km away, 3.3° high, 1,069 m above the ground here
- 217° Alpetragius X, 11.4 km away, 0.3° high, 96 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.
