Horizon view
Horizon from Dawa
85.4500° S, 31.6600° E · cell BCS
- Highest horizon point
- Mons Mouton: 7.4° above the horizontal, 0.56 km away at azimuth 357°.
- Farthest visible point
- 1.36 km away at azimuth 240°, -0.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 6,307 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 5.8° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 10° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 7.2°. At 2026-10-22 10:46:36 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 160 m at this point and about 1.9 km at the farthest samples; nearby foreground relief is smoothed at the coarser tiers, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.

Peaks on the skyline
- 357° Mons Mouton, 0.56 km away, 7.4° high, 74 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.
