Horizon view
Horizon from Drebbel
40.9343° S, 49.1219° W · cell 17GDR
- Highest horizon point
- Drebbel: 11.5° above the horizontal, 14.2 km away at azimuth 20°.
- Farthest visible point
- 18.0 km away at azimuth 101°, 8.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,405 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 1.7° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 90° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 9.7°. At 2026-10-22 13:30:14 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.

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.
