Horizon view
Horizon from Rima Sung-Mei
24.5878° N, 11.2842° E · cell 24RJV
- Highest horizon point
- Aratus CA: 0.6° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 303°.
- Farthest visible point
- 9.48 km away at azimuth 250°, -0.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,611 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 52.2° high at azimuth 129°, 51.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:49:19 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.
