Horizon view
Horizon from Moulton
60.9081° S, 97.5678° E · cell 35EFM
- Highest horizon point
- Moulton: 9.1° above the horizontal, 24.6 km away at azimuth 252°.
- Farthest visible point
- 73.9 km away at azimuth 110°, 1.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,165 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 16.8° high at azimuth 299°, 10.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:20 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
- 252° Moulton, 24.6 km away, 9.1° high, 4,118 m above the ground here
- 22° Moulton, 26.5 km away, 5.4° high, 2,718 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.
