Horizon view

Horizon from Chandrayaan-3

69.3741° S, 32.3200° E · cell 27DFF

Highest horizon point
An unnamed point: 2.3° above the horizontal, 32.2 km away at azimuth 287°.
Farthest visible point
101 km away at azimuth 181°, 0.3° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 534 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 15.6° high at azimuth 314°, 13.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-09-27 05:47:42 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.
