Local sky character in Cumaribo

Tropical / equatorial latitudes · northern hemisphere · 161 m elevation

  • The north celestial pole stands 4.4° above the horizon, so stars within 4° of it never set from here.
  • About 53.9% 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 56.6° up, clearing the horizon haze comfortably.
  • The Large Magellanic Cloud only reaches about 15.9° altitude, so it is a low, seasonal target rather than a year-round one.
  • At 161 m elevation, roughly 2% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.

Are there seasons for stargazing in Cumaribo, Vichada Department, Colombia?
Night length barely changes at this latitude — twilight is short and the Sun sets steeply, so darkness arrives quickly all year. What changes is which part of the sky is on view after sunset, and, in monsoon-affected regions, how often the sky is clear at all.
How dark does it actually get in Cumaribo, Vichada Department, Colombia tonight?
About 9.4 hours of astronomical darkness (Sun more than 18° below the horizon). That is the real observing window for faint objects; brighter targets are workable from dusk onward.
