Horizon view
Horizon from Einstein S
15.1009° N, 91.6668° W · cell 12PAJ
- Highest horizon point
- Einstein S: 17.6° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 323°.
- Farthest visible point
- 11.4 km away at azimuth 68°, 9.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 656 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 38.1° under it at azimuth 80°. At 2026-10-22 17:57:32 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
- 323° Einstein S, 8.53 km away, 17.6° high, 2,731 m above the ground here
- 82° Einstein S, 11.4 km away, 12.5° high, 2,554 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.
