- Brackett: 3.1° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 164°.
- Farthest visible point
- 16.1 km away at azimuth 15°, -0.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,844 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 65.8° high at azimuth 141°, 63.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:15:00 UTC, when this page was served.

Peaks on the skyline
- 164° Brackett, 5.69 km away, 3.1° high, 322 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.
