Horizon view
Horizon from Copernicus E
6.4039° N, 22.7005° W · cell 20NGN
- Highest horizon point
- Copernicus E: 4.4° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 196°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 57°, 2.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,067 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 28.0° high at azimuth 95°, 26.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:16:19 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
- 196° Copernicus E, 1.90 km away, 4.4° high, 149 m above the ground here
- 24° Copernicus E, 1.90 km away, 4.0° high, 136 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.
