Horizon view
Horizon from Fourier A
30.2024° S, 49.6668° W · cell 17JDJ
- Highest horizon point
- Fourier A: 4.0° above the horizontal, 16.1 km away at azimuth 194°.
- Farthest visible point
- 23.7 km away at azimuth 222°, 2.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 401 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 3.9° high at azimuth 89°, 1.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:52:21 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.

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.
