Horizon view

Horizon from Crüger A

16.0083° S, 62.8492° W · cell 15KGL

Highest horizon point
Crüger A: 9.8° above the horizontal, 11.4 km away at azimuth 20°.
Farthest visible point
13.3 km away at azimuth 49°, 7.9° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,564 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is below the horizon: 8.4° under it at azimuth 94°. At 2026-10-22 20:27:19 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.
