Horizon view
Horizon from Zanstra M
1.2416° N, 124.8456° E · cell 39NBM
- Highest horizon point
- Zanstra M: 16.8° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 93°.
- Farthest visible point
- 12.3 km away at azimuth 187°, 13.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,031 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 4.9° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 269° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 7.5°. At 2026-10-22 13:30:47 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
- 93° Zanstra M, 9.48 km away, 16.8° high, 2,898 m above the ground here
- 159° Zanstra M, 10.4 km away, 16.2° high, 3,077 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.
