Horizon view

Horizon from Rima Marius

16.3723° N, 49.5418° W · cell 17QDE

Highest horizon point
An unnamed point: 0.5° above the horizontal, 19.9 km away at azimuth 207°.
Farthest visible point
53.1 km away at azimuth 246°, 0.1° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,754 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is below the horizon: 0.9° under it at azimuth 91°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:32 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.
