Horizon from Vasco da Gama P
11.9979° N, 80.3357° W · cell 13PEQ
- Highest horizon point
- Vasco da Gama P: 15.7° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 327°.
- Farthest visible point
- 41.7 km away at azimuth 193°, 1.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,863 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 30.9° under it at azimuth 84°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:41 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.

- 327° Vasco da Gama P, 3.79 km away, 15.7° high, 1,071 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.
