Horizon view
Horizon from Cyrano D
19.4164° S, 162.4993° E · cell 43KHS
- Highest horizon point
- Cyrano D: 15.3° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 293°.
- Farthest visible point
- 55.0 km away at azimuth 181°, 1.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 643 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 32.1° under it at azimuth 255°. At 2026-10-22 17:57:28 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.

- 173° Paracelsus Y, 46.4 km away, 3.6° high, 3,568 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.
