Horizon view

Horizon from Thebit P

24.0611° S, 5.6318° W · cell 22JHL

Highest horizon point
An unnamed point: 2.9° above the horizontal, 42.6 km away at azimuth 107°.
Farthest visible point
67.3 km away at azimuth 12°, 0.1° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,591 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 39.5° high at azimuth 70°, 37.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:05:49 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

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.
