Horizon from Petermann B
72.7700° N, 63.9053° E · cell 31XEJ
- Highest horizon point
- Petermann B: 15.1° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 62°.
- Farthest visible point
- 32.2 km away at azimuth 204°, 0.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 574 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 14.2° high at azimuth 206°, 13.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:15:48 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.
