Horizon from Catena Taruntius
3.0431° N, 48.7064° E · cell 29NFJ
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 0.9° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 23°.
- Farthest visible point
- 52.1 km away at azimuth 223°, -0.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,555 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 80.1° high at azimuth 244°, 80.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:31:24 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
- 23° Unnamed, 0.95 km away, 0.9° high, 17 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.
