Horizon view
Horizon from Asclepi C
53.5794° S, 23.5491° E · cell 26FEA
- Highest horizon point
- Asclepi D: 6.5° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 156°.
- Farthest visible point
- 19.9 km away at azimuth 82°, 0.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,100 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 36.7° high at azimuth 16°, 32.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:43:02 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
- 156° Asclepi D, 4.74 km away, 6.5° high, 550 m above the ground here
- 33° Asclepi D, 5.69 km away, 5.4° high, 544 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.
