Horizon view
Horizon from Rothmann E
32.9379° S, 29.1889° E · cell 27HCL
- Highest horizon point
- Rothmann E: 16.8° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 234°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 124°, 8.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 821 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 57.6° high at azimuth 14°, 47.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:23:41 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.
