Horizon view
Horizon from Bessel G
21.1442° N, 14.7354° E · cell 25QDF
- Highest horizon point
- Bessel G: 0.2° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 355°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 58°, 0.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,633 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 56.7° high at azimuth 129°, 56.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:30:43 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
- 355° Bessel G, 1.90 km away, 0.2° high, 9 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.
