Horizon view
Horizon from Weigel C
59.6147° S, 42.1212° W · cell 18EDT
- Highest horizon point
- Weigel C: 22.0° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 21°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 12°, 21.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,290 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 5.5° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 83° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 19.6°. At 2026-10-22 14:29:11 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
- 21° Weigel C, 4.74 km away, 22.0° high, 1,917 m above the ground here
- 247° Weigel C, 4.74 km away, 20.1° high, 1,743 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.
