Horizon view
Horizon from Fra Mauro Z
3.8143° S, 14.6593° W · cell 21MGF
- Highest horizon point
- Fra Mauro Z: 19.6° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 215°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 71°, 0.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 603 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 36.0° high at azimuth 89°, 33.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:25:39 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
- 215° Fra Mauro Z, 1.90 km away, 19.6° high, 679 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.
