Horizon view
Horizon from Lorentz U
35.4440° N, 99.9037° W · cell 11SBJ
- Highest horizon point
- Lorentz U: 18.7° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 93°.
- Farthest visible point
- 11.4 km away at azimuth 22°, 15.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,921 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 38.5° under it at azimuth 58°. At 2026-10-22 16:16:27 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
- 93° Lorentz U, 10.4 km away, 18.7° high, 3,566 m above the ground here
- 201° Lorentz U, 11.4 km away, 16.3° high, 3,359 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.
