Horizon view

Horizon from Nöggerath G

50.2729° S, 45.9426° W · cell 17FGE

Highest horizon point
Nöggerath G: 10.2° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 332°.
Farthest visible point
12.3 km away at azimuth 155°, 4.2° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,089 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is 4.5° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 87° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 7.0°. At 2026-10-22 15:39:30 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

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.
