Horizon view

Horizon from Lick E

10.6193° N, 50.6479° E · cell 29PJT

Highest horizon point
Lick E: 21.0° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 33°.
Farthest visible point
4.74 km away at azimuth 176°, 18.1° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,994 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 71.2° high at azimuth 231°, 53.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 20:59:54 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.
