Horizon view
Horizon from Büsching H
37.4568° S, 21.0607° E · cell 26HCV
- Highest horizon point
- Büsching H: 8.1° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 270°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 91°, 1.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 317 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 51.0° high at azimuth 26°, 46.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:54:51 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
- 270° Büsching H, 1.90 km away, 8.1° high, 272 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.
