Horizon view
Horizon from Segner K
56.1666° S, 54.4603° W · cell 16EGM
- Highest horizon point
- Segner K: 16.8° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 230°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 104°, 9.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,478 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 0.7° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 91° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 8.3°. At 2026-10-22 20:27:17 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
- 230° Segner K, 1.90 km away, 16.8° high, 576 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.
