Farthest visible point
69.2 km away at azimuth 292°, 0.1° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 775 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 50.4° high at azimuth 74°, 47.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:04:57 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.
