Horizon from Horrebow

58.8016° N, 40.9313° W · cell 18VEB

Highest horizon point
Horrebow: 15.3° above the horizontal, 11.4 km away at azimuth 295°.
Farthest visible point
14.2 km away at azimuth 211°, 9.6° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,988 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is 4.2° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 100° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 11.5°. At 2026-10-22 15:38:38 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

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.
