Horizon view
Horizon from Biela W
55.3103° S, 49.8724° E · cell 29FGT
- Highest horizon point
- Biela W: 24.3° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 272°.
- Farthest visible point
- 10.4 km away at azimuth 168°, 13.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,883 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 35.2° high at azimuth 346°, 20.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:42:11 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.

Peaks on the skyline
- 272° Biela W, 7.58 km away, 24.3° high, 3,442 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.
