Horizon view

Horizon from North Massif

20.5364° N, 30.7186° E · cell 27QDQ

Highest horizon point
North Massif: 11.0° above the horizontal, 0.24 km away at azimuth 354°.
Farthest visible point
76.5 km away at azimuth 175°, -1.1° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,056 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 66.5° high at azimuth 158°, 66.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:25:32 UTC, when this page was served.
Resolution
Terrain resolution: about 474 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.

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.
