Local sky character in Bandar Tasik Puteri

Tropical / equatorial latitudes · northern hemisphere · 60 m elevation

  • The north celestial pole stands 3.3° above the horizon, so stars within 3° of it never set from here.
  • About 52.9% 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 57.7° up, clearing the horizon haze comfortably.
  • The Large Magellanic Cloud only reaches about 17° altitude, so it is a low, seasonal target rather than a year-round one.
  • At 60 m elevation, roughly 1% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
