Horizon view

Horizon from Bay

88.7600° S, 36.8500° W · cell AZP

Highest horizon point
Bay: 26.7° above the horizontal, 1.28 km away at azimuth 149°.
Farthest visible point
1.68 km away at azimuth 0°, 18.7° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,095 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is 1.6° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 78° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 22.0°. At 2026-10-22 10:46:07 UTC, when this page was served.
Resolution
Terrain resolution: about 160 m at this point and about 400 m at the farthest samples; nearby foreground relief is smoothed at the coarser tiers, 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.
