Horizon from Beijerinck J
14.6833° S, 153.8508° E · cell 42LHN
- Highest horizon point
- Beijerinck J: 11.3° above the horizontal, 19.9 km away at azimuth 55°.
- Farthest visible point
- 22.7 km away at azimuth 15°, 10.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 642 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 23.0° under it at azimuth 262°. At 2026-10-22 13:49:01 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
- 55° Beijerinck J, 19.9 km away, 11.3° high, 4,091 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.
