Horizon view

Horizon from Flammarion A

1.9484° S, 2.5025° W · cell 23MBC

Highest horizon point
An unnamed point: 5.9° above the horizontal, 16.1 km away at azimuth 261°.
Farthest visible point
36.0 km away at azimuth 113°, 0.3° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 869 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 50.8° high at azimuth 90°, 50.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:43:10 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.
