Horizon view
Horizon from Poisson K
32.7284° S, 9.5533° E · cell 24HGL
- Highest horizon point
- Poisson K: 23.4° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 199°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 19°, 20.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,185 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 50.0° high at azimuth 44°, 32.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 21:00:38 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
- 199° Poisson K, 5.69 km away, 23.4° high, 2,469 m above the ground here
- 316° Poisson K, 5.69 km away, 22.4° high, 2,351 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.
