Horizon view

Horizon from Ginzel H

12.4346° N, 100.0187° E · cell 36PAF

Highest horizon point
Ginzel H: 7.6° above the horizontal, 21.8 km away at azimuth 120°.
Farthest visible point
24.6 km away at azimuth 66°, 6.2° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,602 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 26.5° high at azimuth 262°, 19.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:57:14 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

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.
