Horizon view
Horizon from Waterman
25.7021° S, 128.1769° E · cell 39JFU
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 5.3° above the horizontal, 37.9 km away at azimuth 357°.
- Farthest visible point
- 48.3 km away at azimuth 32°, 3.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,292 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 3.2° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 270° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 4.7°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:06 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.
Vertical scale exaggerated 5x (horizontal 4 px per degree). Eye 2 m above the ground.Scroll sideways to turn; the middle faces 357°.

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.
