Horizon view
Horizon from Grimaldi S
6.3515° S, 64.8782° W · cell 15MDC
- Highest horizon point
- Grimaldi S: 26.6° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 205°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 0°, 13.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,076 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 13.5° under it at azimuth 93°. At 2026-10-22 15:17:08 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
- 205° Grimaldi S, 3.79 km away, 26.6° high, 1,909 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.
