Horizon view
Horizon from von Behring
7.7496° S, 71.7222° E · cell 32MER
- Highest horizon point
- von Behring: 10.5° above the horizontal, 18.0 km away at azimuth 313°.
- Farthest visible point
- 19.9 km away at azimuth 21°, 9.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,634 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 53.2° high at azimuth 278°, 43.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 22:25:32 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.

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.
