Horizon view
Horizon from Hommel Y
60.4762° S, 30.8557° E · cell 27EES
- Highest horizon point
- Hommel Y: 11.0° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 240°.
- Farthest visible point
- 1.90 km away at azimuth 0°, 6.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,407 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 30.7° high at azimuth 7°, 23.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:24:34 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.
