Horizon from Luna 23

12.6667° N, 62.1511° E · cell 31PCR

Highest horizon point
An unnamed point: 2.1° above the horizontal, 60.6 km away at azimuth 152°.
Farthest visible point
113 km away at azimuth 71°, 0.9° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,672 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 15.8° high at azimuth 265°, 16.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-09-27 05:47:12 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.
