Horizon view
Horizon from Möbius
15.6323° N, 101.1308° E · cell 36PBJ
- Highest horizon point
- Möbius: 6.4° above the horizontal, 22.7 km away at azimuth 272°.
- Farthest visible point
- 27.5 km away at azimuth 336°, 4.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,967 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 27.0° high at azimuth 260°, 22.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:38:51 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.

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.
