Horizon view
Horizon from Segner M
59.7844° S, 45.4856° W · cell 17EGN
- Highest horizon point
- Segner M: 15.4° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 40°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 172°, 9.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,394 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 3.5° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 87° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 15.0°. At 2026-10-22 13:30:47 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
- 40° Segner M, 1.90 km away, 15.4° high, 525 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.
