44.6819° N, 7.5534° W · cell 22TFQ

Highest horizon point
Pico K: 4.1° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 106°.
Farthest visible point
43.6 km away at azimuth 323°, 2.2° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,857 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 28.6° high at azimuth 125°, 25.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:42:07 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.
