Horizon view
Horizon from Lick A
11.4833° N, 52.8416° E · cell 30PBD
- Highest horizon point
- Lick A: 18.3° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 128°.
- Farthest visible point
- 20.9 km away at azimuth 314°, 6.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,115 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 70.1° high at azimuth 231°, 55.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:57:57 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
- 128° Lick A, 9.48 km away, 18.3° high, 3,153 m above the ground here
- 231° Lick A, 6.63 km away, 15.0° high, 1,794 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.
