Horizon view
Horizon from Faraday D
43.7752° S, 9.6135° E · cell 24GGS
- Highest horizon point
- Faraday D: 24.3° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 346°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 207°, 16.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,268 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 40.2° high at azimuth 40°, 17.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:16:44 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
- 346° Faraday D, 5.69 km away, 24.3° high, 2,577 m above the ground here
- 168° Faraday D, 5.69 km away, 19.3° high, 2,004 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.
