Horizon from Gilbert S
1.7863° S, 75.5329° E · cell 32MKC
- Highest horizon point
- Gilbert S: 17.1° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 25°.
- Farthest visible point
- 14.2 km away at azimuth 199°, 2.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,828 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 54.2° high at azimuth 270°, 44.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:38:54 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
- 25° Gilbert S, 8.53 km away, 17.1° high, 2,641 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.
