Horizon from Darney J

14.3545° S, 21.4546° W · cell 20LHH

Highest horizon point
Darney J: 14.8° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 11°.
Farthest visible point
3.79 km away at azimuth 149°, 10.4° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,439 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 32.0° high at azimuth 82°, 21.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 21:21:52 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.
