Horizon view
Horizon from Suess G
3.4108° N, 48.4610° W · cell 17NEK
- Highest horizon point
- Suess G: 11.8° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 53°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 265°, 4.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,961 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 4.1° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 92° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 10.4°. At 2026-10-22 18:24:16 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
- 53° Suess G, 0.95 km away, 11.8° high, 200 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.
