Oresme Q: 12.0° above the horizontal, 13.3 km away at azimuth 3°.
Farthest visible point
19.9 km away at azimuth 328°, 6.0° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,515 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is below the horizon: 24.9° under it at azimuth 241°. At 2026-10-22 13:49:10 UTC, when this page was served.

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.
