Horizon view

Horizon from Wilhelm K

44.1322° S, 21.7572° W · cell 20GGM

Highest horizon point
Lagalla: 15.2° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 212°.
Farthest visible point
23.7 km away at azimuth 319°, 4.3° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,322 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 21.0° high at azimuth 70°, 17.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:31:16 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

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.
