Horizon view
Horizon from Wexler H
70.4092° S, 97.1696° E · cell 35DFV
- Highest horizon point
- Wexler H: 18.1° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 50°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 90°, 16.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 329 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 11.2° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 299° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 15.8°. At 2026-10-22 17:09:11 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
- 50° Wexler H, 5.69 km away, 18.1° high, 1,867 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.
