Kinau Q: 14.3° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 113°.
Farthest visible point
32.2 km away at azimuth 290°, 1.5° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,417 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 27.7° high at azimuth 18°, 16.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:43:28 UTC, when this page was served.

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.
