Horizon view

Horizon from Reimarus R

47.6505° S, 63.9976° E · cell 31GEC

Highest horizon point
Reimarus R: 7.5° above the horizontal, 17.1 km away at azimuth 40°.
Farthest visible point
20.9 km away at azimuth 333°, 6.5° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,319 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 38.2° high at azimuth 325°, 31.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:42:42 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

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.
