Horizon view
Horizon from Mare Nectaris
15.1852° S, 34.6021° E · cell 27LJM
- Highest horizon point
- Daguerre Z: 0.4° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 20°.
- Farthest visible point
- 11.4 km away at azimuth 316°, -0.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,772 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 74.8° high at azimuth 25°, 74.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:40 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
- 20° Daguerre Z, 4.74 km away, 0.4° high, 41 m above the ground here
- 250° Unnamed, 7.58 km away, 0.3° high, 59 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.
