Horizon view
Horizon from Curie M
28.6037° S, 92.5098° E · cell 35JBL
- Highest horizon point
- Curie M: 8.4° above the horizontal, 18.0 km away at azimuth 16°.
- Farthest visible point
- 71.1 km away at azimuth 138°, 1.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,761 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 30.7° high at azimuth 287°, 24.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:42:42 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
- 16° Curie M, 18.0 km away, 8.4° high, 2,742 m above the ground here
- 72° Curie M, 0.95 km away, 6.8° high, 115 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.
