Horizon view
Horizon from Ariadaeus D
4.8768° N, 17.0252° E · cell 25NGF
- Highest horizon point
- Ariadaeus D: 7.7° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 76°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 286°, 3.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 580 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 68.6° high at azimuth 106°, 62.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:57:57 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
- 76° Ariadaeus D, 1.90 km away, 7.7° high, 260 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.
