Horizon from Bear Mountain

19.9803° N, 30.7729° E · cell 27QDQ

Highest horizon point
South Massif: 13.8° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 259°.
Farthest visible point
35.8 km away at azimuth 101°, 0.3° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,406 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 66.9° high at azimuth 156°, 62.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:34:12 UTC, when this page was served.
Resolution
Terrain resolution: about 474 m at this point and about 1.9 km 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.
