Horizon view
Horizon from Petrov B
62.1979° S, 90.8107° E · cell 34EGE
- Highest horizon point
- Petrov B: 17.3° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 280°.
- Farthest visible point
- 17.1 km away at azimuth 142°, 4.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,233 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 17.8° high at azimuth 304°, 1.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:16:51 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.

Peaks on the skyline
- 280° Petrov B, 0.95 km away, 17.3° high, 298 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.
