Horizon view
Horizon from Coriolis M
1.4991° S, 171.5247° E · cell 44MKD
- Highest horizon point
- Coriolis M: 11.2° above the horizontal, 15.2 km away at azimuth 36°.
- Farthest visible point
- 21.8 km away at azimuth 229°, 2.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 177 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 44.1° under it at azimuth 267°. At 2026-10-22 18:24:02 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.

- 36° Coriolis M, 15.2 km away, 11.2° high, 3,082 m above the ground here
- 94° Coriolis M, 15.2 km away, 11.2° high, 3,078 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.
