Horizon view
Horizon from Necho V
4.5891° S, 120.8805° E · cell 38MGV
- Highest horizon point
- Necho V: 15.9° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 104°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 70°, 12.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 758 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 7.4° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 269° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 11.3°. At 2026-10-22 16:42:19 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
- 104° Necho V, 8.53 km away, 15.9° high, 2,460 m above the ground here
- 308° Necho V, 8.53 km away, 14.2° high, 2,177 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.
