Horizon view
Horizon from Fourier D
31.5306° S, 50.5642° W · cell 17JCG
- Highest horizon point
- Fourier D: 9.6° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 249°.
- Farthest visible point
- 23.7 km away at azimuth 18°, 4.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 979 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 1.7° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 91° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 4.1°. At 2026-10-22 16:32:21 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.

Peaks on the skyline
- 249° Fourier D, 9.48 km away, 9.6° high, 1,631 m above the ground here
- 303° Fourier D, 10.4 km away, 8.8° high, 1,639 m above the ground here
- 71° Fourier D, 9.48 km away, 5.4° high, 926 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.
