Horizon view
Horizon from Polybius P
21.5584° S, 22.9104° E · cell 26KDU
- Highest horizon point
- Polybius P: 19.2° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 62°.
- Farthest visible point
- 7.58 km away at azimuth 100°, 16.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 798 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 65.8° high at azimuth 35°, 47.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:42:52 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
- 62° Polybius P, 5.69 km away, 19.2° high, 1,989 m above the ground here
- 155° Polybius P, 3.79 km away, 17.6° high, 1,211 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.
