Horizon view

Horizon from Meton D

72.1566° N, 24.4620° E · cell 26XFN

Highest horizon point
An unnamed point: 2.0° above the horizontal, 38.9 km away at azimuth 31°.
Farthest visible point
49.3 km away at azimuth 42°, 0.6° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,386 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 15.7° high at azimuth 163°, 15.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:06 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

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.
