Horizon from Black

9.1959° S, 80.3949° E · cell 33LFU

Highest horizon point
Black: 18.7° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 22°.
Farthest visible point
9.48 km away at azimuth 18°, 18.5° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,730 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 48.0° high at azimuth 278°, 31.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:16:49 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

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.
