Horizon view
Horizon from Marvin
89.1300° S, 87.7800° W · cell AYN
- Highest horizon point
- Marvin: 23.5° above the horizontal, 1.92 km away at azimuth 329°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.80 km away at azimuth 187°, 2.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 179 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 0.8° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 129° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 4.2°. At 2026-10-22 10:46:37 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 160 m at this point and about 400 m at the farthest samples; nearby foreground relief is smoothed at the coarser tiers, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.

Peaks on the skyline
- 329° Marvin, 1.92 km away, 23.5° high, 836 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.
