Horizon view
Horizon from Herschel C
5.0105° S, 3.1813° W · cell 23MBU
- Highest horizon point
- Herschel C: 21.9° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 107°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 0°, 16.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 759 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 47.4° high at azimuth 87°, 26.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:25:32 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
- 107° Herschel C, 4.74 km away, 21.9° high, 1,914 m above the ground here
- 229° Herschel C, 3.79 km away, 21.1° high, 1,473 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.
