Horizon view
Horizon from Rimae Theaetetus
33.0351° N, 5.8665° E · cell 24SCL
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 3.0° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 135°.
- Farthest visible point
- 20.9 km away at azimuth 204°, -0.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,195 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 42.8° high at azimuth 130°, 39.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 12:43:07 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
- 135° Unnamed, 10.4 km away, 3.0° high, 581 m above the ground here
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.
