Horizon view
Horizon from Archimedes R
26.0736° N, 6.6089° W · cell 22RGM
- Highest horizon point
- Archimedes R: 10.1° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 332°.
- Farthest visible point
- 47.4 km away at azimuth 166°, 0.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,384 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 37.9° high at azimuth 115°, 34.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:33:59 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
- 332° Archimedes R, 2.84 km away, 10.1° high, 511 m above the ground here
- 105° Montes Archimedes, 19.9 km away, 3.9° high, 1,475 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.
