Horizon view
Horizon from Lick B
11.1408° N, 51.4057° E · cell 29PKU
- Highest horizon point
- Lick C: 5.7° above the horizontal, 18.0 km away at azimuth 39°.
- Farthest visible point
- 28.4 km away at azimuth 307°, 1.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 617 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 70.5° high at azimuth 231°, 68.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 20:27:10 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.
