Horizon view

Horizon from Rima Draper

17.3691° N, 25.3672° W · cell 20QDG

Highest horizon point
An unnamed point: 2.9° above the horizontal, 29.4 km away at azimuth 269°.
Farthest visible point
87.2 km away at azimuth 151°, -0.2° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,332 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 22.4° high at azimuth 99°, 22.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:55:01 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.
