Horizon view
Horizon from Hainzel S
41.1091° S, 37.6771° W · cell 18GHA
- Highest horizon point
- Hainzel S: 15.8° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 22°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 133°, 8.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 428 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 12.8° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 80° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 13.3°. At 2026-10-22 20:03:48 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
- 22° Hainzel S, 3.79 km away, 15.8° high, 1,080 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.
