Horizon view
Horizon from Calippus E
38.9237° N, 11.8885° E · cell 24SJT
- Highest horizon point
- Calippus E: 14.5° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 322°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 144°, 1.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 302 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 42.9° high at azimuth 142°, 41.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:16:21 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
- 322° Calippus E, 0.95 km away, 14.5° high, 248 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.
