Horizon view
Horizon from Clausius H
37.8694° S, 39.6334° W · cell 18HFE
- Highest horizon point
- Clausius H: 12.7° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 60°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 351°, 8.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,181 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 11.4° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 83° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 12.3°. At 2026-10-22 19:05:12 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
- 60° Clausius H, 2.84 km away, 12.7° high, 645 m above the ground here
- 267° Clausius H, 2.84 km away, 12.5° high, 633 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.
