Horizon view

Horizon from Cone

3.6248° S, 17.4336° W · cell 21MDF

Highest horizon point
An unnamed point: 4.2° above the horizontal, 0.47 km away at azimuth 104°.
Farthest visible point
23.7 km away at azimuth 252°, -0.4° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,019 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 31.4° high at azimuth 89°, 27.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 10:46:07 UTC, when this page was served.
Resolution
Terrain resolution: about 474 m at this point and about 1.9 km at the farthest samples; nearby foreground relief is smoothed at the coarser tiers, 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.
