Horizon view

Horizon from Campanus

28.0426° S, 27.8979° W · cell 20JAL

Highest horizon point
Campanus: 4.8° above the horizontal, 25.6 km away at azimuth 145°.
Farthest visible point
26.5 km away at azimuth 96°, 2.7° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,674 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 21.2° high at azimuth 80°, 18.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:38:26 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

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.
