Horizon from Racah W
12.4590° S, 178.8898° E · cell 45LJQ
- Highest horizon point
- Racah W: 15.3° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 129°.
- Farthest visible point
- 20.9 km away at azimuth 213°, 5.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,770 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 47.2° under it at azimuth 254°. At 2026-10-22 13:45:18 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
- 129° Racah W, 2.84 km away, 15.3° high, 783 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.
