Horizon view
Horizon from Korolev M
8.4975° S, 157.3696° W · cell 3LJV
- Highest horizon point
- Korolev M: 11.2° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 125°.
- Farthest visible point
- 30.3 km away at azimuth 255°, 3.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,352 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 69.5° under it at azimuth 242°. At 2026-10-22 11:55:01 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.
