Horizon view
Horizon from Taylor B
4.3392° S, 14.2939° E · cell 25MCQ
- Highest horizon point
- Taylor B: 13.0° above the horizontal, 13.3 km away at azimuth 56°.
- Farthest visible point
- 64.4 km away at azimuth 283°, 0.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 87 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 67.5° high at azimuth 83°, 57.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:42:56 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
- 56° Taylor B, 13.3 km away, 13.0° high, 3,127 m above the ground here
- 236° Taylor B, 14.2 km away, 4.5° high, 1,178 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.
