Horizon view

Horizon from Louise

28.4866° N, 34.1961° W · cell 19RCQ

Highest horizon point
Diophantus: 2.4° above the horizontal, 16.1 km away at azimuth 194°.
Farthest visible point
49.3 km away at azimuth 290°, 0.1° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,655 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 14.3° high at azimuth 100°, 14.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:38:38 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.
