Horizon view

Horizon from Clavius X

60.2466° S, 17.8125° W · cell 21EDS

Highest horizon point
Clavius X: 15.0° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 142°.
Farthest visible point
3.79 km away at azimuth 138°, 14.5° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,950 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 16.9° high at azimuth 61°, 4.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:33:29 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.
