Tonight's sky above Anserma, Risaralda Department, Colombia

Local sky character in Anserma
Tropical / equatorial latitudes · northern hemisphere · 2088 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 5.3° above the horizon, so stars within 5° of it never set from here.
- About 54.6% of the whole sky rises above the horizon at some point in the year from this latitude.
- The Milky Way's core in Sagittarius culminates about 55.7° up, clearing the horizon haze comfortably.
- The Large Magellanic Cloud only reaches about 15° altitude, so it is a low, seasonal target rather than a year-round one.
- At 2088 m elevation, roughly 22% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Anserma is small enough that local light domes are limited — on a clear, moonless night the Milky Way is realistically within reach.
