Horizon view
Horizon from Borda E
24.0064° S, 45.4846° E · cell 29JCR
- Highest horizon point
- Borda E: 13.2° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 97°.
- Farthest visible point
- 23.7 km away at azimuth 151°, 5.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,789 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 66.3° high at azimuth 342°, 59.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:14:08 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
- 97° Borda E, 6.63 km away, 13.2° high, 1,566 m above the ground here
- 236° Borda E, 4.74 km away, 11.8° high, 997 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.
