Horizon view
Horizon from Hyginus N
10.5491° N, 7.4273° E · cell 24PEC
- Highest horizon point
- Hyginus N: 10.0° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 130°.
- Farthest visible point
- 22.7 km away at azimuth 226°, 1.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,222 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 58.3° high at azimuth 110°, 52.9° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:05:12 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.

- 1° Hyginus N, 4.74 km away, 9.8° high, 826 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.
