Horizon view
Horizon from Volta
53.9005° N, 84.7656° W · cell 12UHR
- Highest horizon point
- Volta: 9.1° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 242°.
- Farthest visible point
- 67.3 km away at azimuth 71°, 1.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,266 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 21.3° under it at azimuth 61°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:01 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
- 242° Volta, 2.84 km away, 9.1° high, 458 m above the ground here
- 89° Unnamed, 60.6 km away, 2.4° high, 3,631 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.
