Horizon view

Horizon from Drebbel B

37.7801° S, 47.5171° W · cell 17HFV

Highest horizon point
Drebbel B: 11.2° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 240°.
Farthest visible point
9.48 km away at azimuth 0°, 6.7° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 837 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is 5.4° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 88° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 8.4°. At 2026-10-22 19:43:14 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.

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.
