Horizon view
Horizon from Leavitt Z
42.5669° S, 139.5556° W · cell 6GBU
- Highest horizon point
- Leavitt Z: 7.4° above the horizontal, 32.2 km away at azimuth 50°.
- Farthest visible point
- 36.0 km away at azimuth 150°, 4.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,573 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 46.1° under it at azimuth 180°. At 2026-10-22 12:43:09 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.

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.
