Horizon view

Horizon from Lovell R

37.6164° S, 144.5981° W · cell 5HEV

Highest horizon point
Lovell R: 10.4° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 74°.
Farthest visible point
12.3 km away at azimuth 162°, 6.4° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 6,086 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is below the horizon: 50.9° under it at azimuth 186°. At 2026-10-22 14:25:34 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.
