Horizon view
Horizon from Necho R
5.7718° S, 122.2111° E · cell 38MHU
- Highest horizon point
- Necho R: 19.2° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 344°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 110°, 8.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 865 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 6.3° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 269° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 16.6°. At 2026-10-22 16:17:04 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
- 344° Necho R, 7.58 km away, 19.2° high, 2,661 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.
