Horizon from Licetus M

46.8435° S, 1.8511° E · cell 23GGJ

Highest horizon point
Licetus M: 6.6° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 325°.
Farthest visible point
5.69 km away at azimuth 180°, 3.8° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,614 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 35.4° high at azimuth 44°, 30.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:42:59 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

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.
