Horizon view
Horizon from Scheiner B
59.7002° S, 33.5673° W · cell 19EEH
- Highest horizon point
- Scheiner B: 16.9° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 234°.
- Farthest visible point
- 15.2 km away at azimuth 91°, 12.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,484 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 10.6° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 74° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 11.6°. At 2026-10-22 17:57:23 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
- 234° Scheiner B, 0.95 km away, 16.9° high, 290 m above the ground here
- 93° Scheiner B, 15.2 km away, 12.6° high, 3,443 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.
