Harriot A: 17.5° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 94°.
Farthest visible point
27.5 km away at azimuth 311°, 6.9° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,426 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 12.0° high at azimuth 259°, 4.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:54:57 UTC, when this page was served.

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.
