Horizon view

Horizon from Lhamu

85.9200° S, 1.6200° W · cell AZS

Highest horizon point
Mons Malapert: 25.2° above the horizontal, 0.24 km away at azimuth 185°.
Farthest visible point
162 km away at azimuth 6°, -3.2° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,492 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 4.3° high at azimuth 43°, 2.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 10:47:13 UTC, when this page was served.
Resolution
Terrain resolution: about 160 m at this point and about 1.9 km at the farthest samples; nearby foreground relief is smoothed at the coarser tiers, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.

Peaks on the skyline

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.
