Horizon view
Horizon from Bečvář X
1.0041° S, 124.4682° E · cell 39MAJ
- Highest horizon point
- Bečvář X: 16.1° above the horizontal, 12.3 km away at azimuth 147°.
- Farthest visible point
- 14.2 km away at azimuth 0°, 11.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,884 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 5.4° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 269° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 12.4°. At 2026-10-22 13:30:11 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.

- 319° Bečvář X, 11.4 km away, 14.5° high, 2,980 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.
