Horizon view
Horizon from Laplace E
50.3313° N, 20.2986° W · cell 20UHG
- Highest horizon point
- Laplace E: 10.1° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 313°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 0°, 6.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,186 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 18.6° high at azimuth 116°, 14.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:28:01 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
- 313° Laplace E, 2.84 km away, 10.1° high, 512 m above the ground here
- 85° Laplace E, 3.79 km away, 7.0° high, 470 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.
