Horizon view

Horizon from Gioja

83.3469° N, 1.7595° E · cell ZAD

Highest horizon point
Gioja: 5.3° above the horizontal, 0.80 km away at azimuth 113°.
Farthest visible point
23.8 km away at azimuth 347°, 3.6° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,010 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is 3.9° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 142° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 5.2°. At 2026-10-22 13:38:53 UTC, when this page was served.
Resolution
Terrain resolution: about 160 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

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.
