Horizon view

Horizon from Rhaeticus F

0.0600° S, 6.4378° E · cell 24MDK

Highest horizon point
Rhaeticus F: 7.2° above the horizontal, 8.53 km away at azimuth 97°.
Farthest visible point
36.0 km away at azimuth 13°, 2.5° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 78 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 59.9° high at azimuth 93°, 52.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 20:03:47 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.
