McClure A: 16.7° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 219°.
Farthest visible point
3.79 km away at azimuth 0°, 6.7° from the horizontal.
Observer
Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 163 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
Sun at the rendered time
The Sun is above the local horizon: 72.2° high at azimuth 322°, 63.5° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:56:50 UTC, when this page was served.

Peaks on the skyline

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.
