Horizon view
Horizon from Dorsa Whiston
29.7664° N, 56.9618° W · cell 16RDS
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 1.6° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 200°.
- Farthest visible point
- 28.4 km away at azimuth 18°, -0.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,290 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 6.6° under it at azimuth 88°. At 2026-10-22 13:31:17 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
- 200° Unnamed, 0.95 km away, 1.6° high, 29 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.
