Horizon view
Horizon from Jerik
18.5279° N, 27.6312° E · cell 26QKH
- Highest horizon point
- Mons Argaeus: 2.0° above the horizontal, 40.0 km away at azimuth 38°.
- Farthest visible point
- 60.9 km away at azimuth 81°, 0.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,640 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 67.9° high at azimuth 153°, 67.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:59:56 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.

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.
