Horizon view
Horizon from Maclaurin M
4.8777° S, 69.1762° E · cell 32MBV
- Highest horizon point
- Maclaurin M: 12.4° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 70°.
- Farthest visible point
- 112 km away at azimuth 326°, -0.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,298 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 57.4° high at azimuth 275°, 56.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:43:11 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
- 70° Maclaurin M, 2.84 km away, 12.4° high, 627 m above the ground here
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.
