Horizon view
Horizon from Lick K
10.1652° N, 52.7922° E · cell 30PBC
- Highest horizon point
- Lick K: 12.1° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 180°.
- Farthest visible point
- 24.6 km away at azimuth 94°, 5.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,217 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 71.0° high at azimuth 233°, 60.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:47:39 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
- 180° Lick K, 1.90 km away, 12.1° high, 408 m above the ground here
- 23° Lick K, 0.95 km away, 10.1° high, 170 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.
