Horizon view
Horizon from Hommel D
55.9275° S, 32.5466° E · cell 27FFC
- Highest horizon point
- Hommel D: 10.0° above the horizontal, 15.2 km away at azimuth 138°.
- Farthest visible point
- 68.2 km away at azimuth 68°, 3.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,637 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 35.2° high at azimuth 7°, 32.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:15:47 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.

- 138° Hommel D, 15.2 km away, 10.0° high, 2,742 m above the ground here
- 239° Unnamed, 17.1 km away, 9.5° high, 2,925 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.
