Horizon view

Horizon from Doppelmayer Y

33.1440° S, 46.1652° W · cell 17HGE

Highest horizon point
An unnamed point: 14.4° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 33°.
Farthest visible point
8.53 km away at azimuth 30°, 14.3° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 671 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is 7.3° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 87° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 10.1°. At 2026-10-22 21:00:36 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.
