Horizon view
Horizon from Lacroix M
35.8966° S, 57.0626° W · cell 16HDS
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 10.4° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 139°.
- Farthest visible point
- 75.8 km away at azimuth 43°, 0.7° 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 below the horizon: 1.7° under it at azimuth 93°. At 2026-10-22 21:00:49 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
- 139° Unnamed, 10.4 km away, 10.4° high, 1,953 m above the ground here
- 287° Lacroix M, 5.69 km away, 10.1° high, 1,028 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.
