Horizon view
Horizon from Hipparchus L
6.8665° S, 9.0007° E · cell 24MGB
- Highest horizon point
- Hipparchus L: 21.6° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 181°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 0°, 16.4° 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: 61.9° high at azimuth 80°, 41.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:43:15 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.
