Horizon view
Horizon from Schröter D
4.4893° N, 9.5302° W · cell 22NDF
- Highest horizon point
- Schröter D: 11.2° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 74°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 0°, 7.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,268 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 42.9° high at azimuth 96°, 32.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:36:16 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
- 74° Schröter D, 0.95 km away, 11.2° high, 191 m above the ground here
- 270° Schröter D, 1.90 km away, 9.9° high, 333 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.
