Horizon view
Horizon from Legendre E
33.8600° S, 78.5732° E · cell 33HDJ
- Highest horizon point
- Legendre E: 11.3° above the horizontal, 15.2 km away at azimuth 25°.
- Farthest visible point
- 20.9 km away at azimuth 92°, 8.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,365 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 39.5° high at azimuth 301°, 29.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:42:24 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.
