Horizon view
Horizon from Korolev L
5.7429° S, 156.8105° W · cell 3MJD
- Highest horizon point
- Korolev L: 8.8° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 281°.
- Farthest visible point
- 17.1 km away at azimuth 210°, 6.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,641 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 72.1° under it at azimuth 247°. At 2026-10-22 13:45:17 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.
