Horizon view
Horizon from Schwarzschild K
67.3525° N, 124.8138° E · cell 39WDM
- Highest horizon point
- Schwarzschild K: 13.0° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 170°.
- Farthest visible point
- 26.5 km away at azimuth 0°, 0.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,368 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 0.3° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 266° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 7.0°. At 2026-10-22 15:38:51 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
- 170° Schwarzschild K, 1.90 km away, 13.0° high, 441 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.
