Horizon view
Horizon from Posidonius Z
30.7538° N, 22.9479° E · cell 26RDC
- Highest horizon point
- Posidonius Z: 2.8° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 64°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 291°, 0.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,754 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 54.2° high at azimuth 151°, 53.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:48:56 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
- 64° Posidonius Z, 1.90 km away, 2.8° high, 96 m above the ground here
- 236° Posidonius Z, 1.90 km away, 1.2° high, 43 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.
