Horizon view
Horizon from Diophantus D
26.9067° N, 36.3773° W · cell 18RJC
- Highest horizon point
- Diophantus D: 10.4° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 183°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 89°, 8.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,914 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 11.8° high at azimuth 98°, 2.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:45:15 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.

- 18° Diophantus D, 0.95 km away, 10.2° high, 172 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.
