Horizon view

Horizon from De Sitter X

80.1760° N, 54.1208° E · cell ZKF

Highest horizon point
De Sitter X: 12.7° above the horizontal, 4.40 km away at azimuth 290°.
Farthest visible point
55.8 km away at azimuth 205°, 0.9° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,738 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 8.1° high at azimuth 196°, 7.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:38:46 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.
