Horizon view
Horizon from Bayer X
53.4194° S, 33.8077° W · cell 19FDR
- Highest horizon point
- Bayer X: 20.1° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 267°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 7°, 18.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,774 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 12.4° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 75° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 17.5°. At 2026-10-22 18:54:46 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
- 267° Bayer X, 2.84 km away, 20.1° high, 1,046 m above the ground here
- 154° Bayer X, 3.79 km away, 19.4° high, 1,344 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.
