Horizon view
Horizon from Lyot E
52.0705° S, 83.9137° E · cell 33FHG
- Highest horizon point
- Lyot E: 23.7° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 91°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 158°, 22.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,959 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 26.5° high at azimuth 307°, 4.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:56:47 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.
