Horizon view
Horizon from Hipparchus G
5.0298° S, 7.4018° E · cell 24MED
- Highest horizon point
- Hipparchus G: 23.9° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 61°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 25°, 22.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,566 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 59.3° high at azimuth 84°, 35.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 17:08:53 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.

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.
