Horizon view
Horizon from Rayleigh B
29.0569° N, 88.5015° E · cell 34RFR
- Highest horizon point
- Rayleigh: 20.1° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 167°.
- Farthest visible point
- 7.58 km away at azimuth 19°, 18.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,228 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 34.4° high at azimuth 246°, 16.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:30:58 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.

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.
