Horizon view
Horizon from Büsching J
39.5476° S, 22.2071° E · cell 26HDT
- Highest horizon point
- Büsching J: 8.6° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 58°.
- Farthest visible point
- 14.2 km away at azimuth 175°, 3.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 379 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 49.7° high at azimuth 22°, 41.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 20:17:20 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
- 58° Büsching J, 3.79 km away, 8.6° high, 583 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.
