Horizon view
Horizon from Archimedes D
32.2023° N, 2.6934° W · cell 23SCE
- Highest horizon point
- Archimedes D: 12.1° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 265°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 14°, 8.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,774 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 38.0° high at azimuth 122°, 28.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:25:23 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
- 265° Archimedes D, 1.90 km away, 12.1° high, 409 m above the ground here
- 116° Archimedes D, 2.84 km away, 10.1° high, 509 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.
