Highest horizon point
Dewar: 8.7° above the horizontal, 23.7 km away at azimuth 201°.
Farthest visible point
27.5 km away at azimuth 158°, 7.0° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,062 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is below the horizon: 38.1° under it at azimuth 266°. At 2026-10-22 18:23:55 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.
