Horizon view
Horizon from Leucippus Q
25.7018° N, 119.3798° W · cell 8RFS
- Highest horizon point
- Leucippus Q: 20.4° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 170°.
- Farthest visible point
- 51.2 km away at azimuth 289°, 2.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 278 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 59.0° under it at azimuth 42°. At 2026-10-22 11:54:46 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
- 170° Leucippus Q, 0.95 km away, 20.4° high, 355 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.
