Horizon view
Horizon from Falcon
20.3075° N, 30.3071° E · cell 27QDQ
- Highest horizon point
- South Massif: 12.0° above the horizontal, 8.29 km away at azimuth 169°.
- Farthest visible point
- 86.5 km away at azimuth 117°, -0.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,118 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 66.9° high at azimuth 159°, 57.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:16:25 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 474 m at this point and about 1.9 km at the farthest samples; nearby foreground relief is smoothed at the coarser tiers, 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.
