Horizon view
Horizon from Pallas E
4.0296° N, 1.4712° W · cell 23NDK
- Highest horizon point
- Pallas E: 9.7° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 54°.
- Farthest visible point
- 37.9 km away at azimuth 237°, 0.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 980 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 47.8° high at azimuth 96°, 40.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 12:23:35 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.

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.
