Horizon view
Horizon from Sommerfeld N
61.9094° N, 162.3571° W · cell 3VDF
- Highest horizon point
- Sommerfeld N: 21.8° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 26°.
- Farthest visible point
- 20.9 km away at azimuth 128°, 9.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 230 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 27.2° under it at azimuth 335°. At 2026-10-22 13:48:57 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
- 26° Sommerfeld N, 10.4 km away, 21.8° high, 4,203 m above the ground here
- 213° Sommerfeld N, 11.4 km away, 17.8° high, 3,704 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.
