Horizon view

Horizon from Poisson F

33.7496° S, 7.9766° E · cell 24HEK

Highest horizon point
Poisson F: 7.2° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 262°.
Farthest visible point
18.9 km away at azimuth 222°, 1.9° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 812 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 46.9° high at azimuth 48°, 42.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:17:14 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.
