Horizon view
Horizon from Joule K
25.6453° N, 141.8476° W · cell 5RHS
- Highest horizon point
- Joule K: 24.3° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 311°.
- Farthest visible point
- 7.58 km away at azimuth 37°, 21.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,141 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 65.7° under it at azimuth 357°. At 2026-10-22 14:25:26 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
- 311° Joule K, 6.63 km away, 24.3° high, 3,015 m above the ground here
- 163° Joule K, 7.58 km away, 20.8° high, 2,909 m above the ground here
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.
