Horizon view

Horizon from Demonax A

79.3502° S, 65.8617° E · cell 31CFD

Highest horizon point
Demonax A: 21.6° above the horizontal, 9.60 km away at azimuth 83°.
Farthest visible point
15.1 km away at azimuth 29°, 10.3° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,565 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is 10.9° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 333° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 13.0°. At 2026-10-22 13:30:13 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.
