Horizon view
Horizon from Dorsa Barlow
14.0439° N, 30.5673° E · cell 27PDH
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 2.6° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 20°.
- Farthest visible point
- 56.9 km away at azimuth 208°, -0.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,181 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 71.4° high at azimuth 145°, 70.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:19 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
- 20° Unnamed, 7.58 km away, 2.6° high, 363 m above the ground here
- 215° Unnamed, 55.9 km away, 0.3° high, 1,170 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.
