Horizon view

Horizon from Lovelace

82.0804° N, 109.5096° W · cell YQR

Highest horizon point
Lovelace: 20.1° above the horizontal, 0.24 km away at azimuth 178°.
Farthest visible point
31.0 km away at azimuth 314°, 6.3° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,117 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is below the horizon: 8.2° under it at azimuth 30°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:53 UTC, when this page was served.
Resolution
Terrain resolution: about 160 m at this point and about 1.9 km at the farthest samples; nearby foreground relief is smoothed at the coarser tiers, 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.
