Horizon view
Horizon from Flank
3.6400° S, 17.4400° W · cell 21MDF
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 4.3° above the horizontal, 0.71 km away at azimuth 73°.
- Farthest visible point
- 16.4 km away at azimuth 288°, -0.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,033 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 31.4° high at azimuth 89°, 27.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 10:46:06 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.

Peaks on the skyline
- 73° Unnamed, 0.71 km away, 4.3° high, 55 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.
