Horizon view
Horizon from Clavius H
51.8415° S, 15.8553° W · cell 21FFH
- Highest horizon point
- Clavius H: 5.8° above the horizontal, 16.1 km away at azimuth 300°.
- Farthest visible point
- 28.4 km away at azimuth 184°, 2.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 748 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 23.1° high at azimuth 60°, 20.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:05:10 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.

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.
