Horizon view
Horizon from Cyrano B
18.1530° S, 159.4439° E · cell 43KEU
- Highest horizon point
- Cyrano B: 19.3° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 40°.
- Farthest visible point
- 87.2 km away at azimuth 179°, -2.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,155 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 27.6° under it at azimuth 258°. At 2026-10-22 13:38:56 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.

- 253° Unnamed, 71.1 km away, 1.8° high, 3,729 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.
