Horizon view

Horizon from Haynes

88.7500° S, 167.3900° E · cell BAL

Highest horizon point
Haynes: 10.3° above the horizontal, 8.16 km away at azimuth 4°.
Farthest visible point
26.6 km away at azimuth 152°, 6.0° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,468 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is 0.6° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 234° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 9.0°. At 2026-10-22 10:47:13 UTC, when this page was served.
Resolution
Terrain resolution: about 160 m at this point and about 400 m 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.
