Horizon view
Horizon from Palmieri A
32.2531° S, 48.5203° W · cell 17HEF
- Highest horizon point
- Palmieri A: 18.2° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 207°.
- Farthest visible point
- 14.2 km away at azimuth 83°, 9.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,525 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 4.9° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 89° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 8.9°. At 2026-10-22 19:52:53 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
- 207° Palmieri A, 9.48 km away, 18.2° high, 3,136 m above the ground here
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.
