Horizon view
Horizon from Lovell
36.7419° S, 142.4723° W · cell 5HGA
- Highest horizon point
- Lovell: 12.6° above the horizontal, 17.1 km away at azimuth 129°.
- Farthest visible point
- 29.4 km away at azimuth 6°, 5.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,222 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 51.9° under it at azimuth 177°. At 2026-10-22 22:01:59 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.

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.
