Horizon view
Horizon from Curie
23.0455° S, 92.2793° E · cell 35KAT
- Highest horizon point
- Curie: 9.7° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 201°.
- Farthest visible point
- 83.4 km away at azimuth 122°, 1.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,824 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 35.8° high at azimuth 286°, 35.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 11:06:04 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
- 201° Curie, 4.74 km away, 9.7° high, 813 m above the ground here
- 32° Curie C, 67.3 km away, 2.3° high, 4,005 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.
