Horizon view
Horizon from McMath Q
14.6175° N, 168.4417° W · cell 2PEC
- Highest horizon point
- McMath Q: 19.6° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 45°.
- Farthest visible point
- 15.2 km away at azimuth 309°, 4.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,280 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 61.8° under it at azimuth 296°. At 2026-10-22 19:39:03 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
- 45° McMath Q, 6.63 km away, 19.6° high, 2,387 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.
