Horizon view
Horizon from Planck X
53.9386° S, 129.3130° E · cell 39FFE
- Highest horizon point
- Planck X: 15.1° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 351°.
- Farthest visible point
- 12.3 km away at azimuth 130°, 2.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,201 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 0.4° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 268° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 12.9°. At 2026-10-22 16:42:04 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
- 351° Planck X, 10.4 km away, 15.1° high, 2,853 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.
