Horizon view
Horizon from Guyot J
8.3148° N, 119.6460° E · cell 38PER
- Highest horizon point
- Guyot J: 16.7° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 352°.
- Farthest visible point
- 145 km away at azimuth 172°, -1.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 937 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 7.6° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 267° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 8.4°. At 2026-10-22 17:57:15 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
- 352° Guyot J, 6.63 km away, 16.7° high, 2,012 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.
