Horizon view
Horizon from Cassini E
42.9768° N, 7.3358° E · cell 24TEC
- Highest horizon point
- Cassini E: 16.9° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 148°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 256°, 12.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,907 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 38.8° high at azimuth 142°, 22.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 21:21:40 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
- 148° Cassini E, 4.74 km away, 16.9° high, 1,444 m above the ground here
- 268° Cassini E, 5.69 km away, 14.3° high, 1,465 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.
