Horizon view

Horizon from Petzval C

60.1907° S, 107.5745° W · cell 10ECH

Highest horizon point
Petzval C: 10.6° above the horizontal, 22.7 km away at azimuth 248°.
Farthest visible point
39.8 km away at azimuth 84°, 3.2° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 136 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is below the horizon: 21.8° under it at azimuth 138°. At 2026-10-23 00:17:51 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.
