Horizon view

Horizon from Florey

87.0372° N, 19.7466° W · cell YYJ

Highest horizon point
Florey: 8.2° above the horizontal, 1.92 km away at azimuth 75°.
Farthest visible point
38.7 km away at azimuth 301°, 1.1° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,185 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is 0.1° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 119° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 2.1°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:33 UTC, when this page was served.
Resolution
Terrain resolution: about 160 m at this point and about 400 m 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

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.
