Horizon view
Horizon from Cassini Z
43.4820° N, 2.3795° E · cell 23THT
- Highest horizon point
- Cassini Z: 11.7° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 258°.
- Farthest visible point
- 12.3 km away at azimuth 107°, 5.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,053 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 35.0° high at azimuth 135°, 30.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:09:15 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
- 258° Cassini Z, 1.90 km away, 11.7° high, 394 m above the ground here
- 119° Unnamed, 8.53 km away, 6.5° high, 1,002 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.
