Horizon view
Horizon from Catena Gregory
0.5919° S, 129.8025° E · cell 39MHK
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 14.3° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 59°.
- Farthest visible point
- 74.9 km away at azimuth 278°, 1.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,082 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 1.2° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 269° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 1.6°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:07 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
- 59° Unnamed, 2.84 km away, 14.3° high, 729 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.
