Horizon view

Horizon from De Sitter M

81.1134° N, 37.5718° E · cell ZGD

Highest horizon point
De Sitter M: 5.8° above the horizontal, 0.96 km away at azimuth 233°.
Farthest visible point
49.4 km away at azimuth 132°, 2.7° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,153 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 7.5° high at azimuth 177°, 5.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:18 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

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.
