Horizon view

Horizon from Innes Z

29.4418° N, 119.1792° E · cell 38REA

Highest horizon point
Innes Z: 12.5° above the horizontal, 17.1 km away at azimuth 273°.
Farthest visible point
19.9 km away at azimuth 176°, 9.2° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,442 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is 7.4° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 264° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 12.1°. At 2026-10-22 16:17:17 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.
