Horizon view

Horizon from Anderson

15.4993° N, 170.7942° E · cell 44PJD

Highest horizon point
An unnamed point: 5.1° above the horizontal, 51.2 km away at azimuth 335°.
Farthest visible point
56.9 km away at azimuth 188°, 3.8° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,227 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is below the horizon: 38.9° under it at azimuth 281°. At 2026-10-22 11:54:43 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.
