Horizon view
Horizon from Valier J
6.1940° N, 174.8556° E · cell 45NDT
- Highest horizon point
- Valier J: 18.5° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 131°.
- Farthest visible point
- 55.0 km away at azimuth 291°, 4.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,034 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 44.9° under it at azimuth 274°. At 2026-10-22 13:30:15 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
- 131° Valier J, 9.48 km away, 18.5° high, 3,210 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.
