Horizon view
Horizon from Fraunhofer
39.5155° S, 59.0634° E · cell 30HHC
- Highest horizon point
- Fraunhofer: 6.0° above the horizontal, 27.5 km away at azimuth 17°.
- Farthest visible point
- 39.8 km away at azimuth 293°, 2.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,831 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 48.5° high at azimuth 332°, 42.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:13 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.
