Horizon view
Horizon from Newton E
79.8572° S, 37.3584° W · cell 18CFP
- Highest horizon point
- Newton E: 20.3° above the horizontal, 7.52 km away at azimuth 156°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.64 km away at azimuth 107°, 18.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,901 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 3.5° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 78° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 18.9°. At 2026-10-22 12:23:25 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 160 m at this point and about 1.9 km at the farthest samples; nearby foreground relief is smoothed at the coarser tiers, 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.
