Horizon view
Horizon from La Caille N
21.9640° S, 1.2664° E · cell 23KGU
- Highest horizon point
- La Caille N: 9.5° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 137°.
- Farthest visible point
- 26.5 km away at azimuth 244°, 3.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 559 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 48.1° high at azimuth 66°, 43.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:39:26 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
- 137° La Caille N, 5.69 km away, 9.5° high, 963 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.
