Horizon view
Horizon from Sharp L
45.7803° N, 38.2263° W · cell 18TGF
- Highest horizon point
- Sharp L: 24.6° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 329°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 173°, 6.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 752 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 7.9° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 100° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 10.5°. At 2026-10-22 15:16:16 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
- 329° Sharp L, 0.95 km away, 24.6° high, 438 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.
