Horizon from Sacrobosco Q

21.6643° S, 17.3939° E · cell 25KGP

Highest horizon point
Sacrobosco Q: 9.0° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 271°.
Farthest visible point
27.5 km away at azimuth 67°, 6.3° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 134 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 63.1° high at azimuth 43°, 56.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 22:06:41 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.

Peaks on the skyline

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.
