Horizon from Lippershey M
24.2792° S, 10.8975° W · cell 22JBL
- Highest horizon point
- Lippershey M: 2.0° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 58°.
- Farthest visible point
- 11.4 km away at azimuth 180°, 0.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,478 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 39.7° high at azimuth 70°, 37.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 22:06:41 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.

Peaks on the skyline
- 58° Lippershey M, 0.95 km away, 2.0° high, 34 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.
