Horizon view
Horizon from Maginus X
51.3934° S, 7.7585° W · cell 22FFT
- Highest horizon point
- Maginus X: 15.6° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 217°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 0°, 1.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,576 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 27.3° high at azimuth 53°, 25.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:20:46 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
- 217° Maginus X, 2.84 km away, 15.6° high, 797 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.
