Horizon view
Horizon from Joule L
25.8152° N, 143.8910° W · cell 5RFS
- Highest horizon point
- Joule L: 11.7° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 197°.
- Farthest visible point
- 104 km away at azimuth 312°, 0.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,622 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 65.1° under it at azimuth 348°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:30 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
- 197° Joule L, 6.63 km away, 11.7° high, 1,396 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.
