Horizon view
Horizon from Coriolis W
3.0620° N, 168.0513° E · cell 44NFJ
- Highest horizon point
- Coriolis W: 11.1° above the horizontal, 18.0 km away at azimuth 89°.
- Farthest visible point
- 23.7 km away at azimuth 153°, 6.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 742 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 41.2° under it at azimuth 271°. At 2026-10-22 19:24:20 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.
