Horizon view
Horizon from Krafft E
15.9148° N, 71.7968° W · cell 14PFE
- Highest horizon point
- Krafft E: 23.2° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 332°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 55°, 18.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,965 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 20.3° under it at azimuth 85°. At 2026-10-22 15:16:36 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.

- 22° Krafft E, 3.79 km away, 21.8° high, 1,521 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.
