Horizon view
Horizon from Röntgen A
36.9142° N, 88.1758° W · cell 12SEQ
- Highest horizon point
- Röntgen A: 4.1° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 13°.
- Farthest visible point
- 11.4 km away at azimuth 227°, 2.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 977 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 27.6° under it at azimuth 69°. At 2026-10-22 20:59:54 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.
