Horizon view
Horizon from Becquerel X
42.0184° N, 128.2147° E · cell 39TFA
- Highest horizon point
- Becquerel: 9.2° above the horizontal, 17.1 km away at azimuth 130°.
- Farthest visible point
- 21.8 km away at azimuth 309°, 6.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,359 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 0.2° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 268° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 7.2°. At 2026-10-22 13:48:59 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.

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.
