Horizon view
Horizon from Rima Schröter
1.2752° N, 6.2461° W · cell 22NHB
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 1.6° above the horizontal, 20.9 km away at azimuth 168°.
- Farthest visible point
- 64.4 km away at azimuth 321°, -0.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 808 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 45.1° high at azimuth 93°, 44.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:55:40 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.
