Horizon view
Horizon from Kelvin B
27.6661° S, 32.1805° W · cell 19JEG
- Highest horizon point
- Kelvin B: 14.4° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 86°.
- Farthest visible point
- 10.4 km away at azimuth 290°, 5.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,539 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 16.6° high at azimuth 83°, 2.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:45:14 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
- 86° Kelvin B, 1.90 km away, 14.4° high, 488 m above the ground here
- 196° Unnamed, 7.58 km away, 6.2° high, 838 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.
