Horizon view
Horizon from Clairaut R
47.9908° S, 15.8358° E · cell 25GEB
- Highest horizon point
- Clairaut R: 9.0° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 2°.
- Farthest visible point
- 87.2 km away at azimuth 258°, -0.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,357 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 39.7° high at azimuth 29°, 31.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:57:14 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.

- 203° Clairaut R, 9.48 km away, 4.8° high, 822 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.
