Horizon view
Horizon from D'Arsonval
10.3139° S, 124.5874° E · cell 39LAT
- Highest horizon point
- D'Arsonval: 14.3° above the horizontal, 14.2 km away at azimuth 1°.
- Farthest visible point
- 76.8 km away at azimuth 205°, 0.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 576 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 4.0° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 269° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 9.1°. At 2026-10-22 16:14:07 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
- 1° D'Arsonval, 14.2 km away, 14.3° high, 3,692 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.
