Tonight's sky above Feira Grande, Alagoas, Brazil

Local sky character in Feira Grande
Tropical / equatorial latitudes · southern hemisphere · 222 m elevation
- The south celestial pole stands 9.9° above the horizon, so stars within 10° of it never set from here.
- About 58.6% 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 70.9° up, passing almost directly overhead.
- The Large Magellanic Cloud only reaches about 30.2° altitude, so it is a low, seasonal target rather than a year-round one.
- At 222 m elevation, roughly 3% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Feira Grande is small enough that local light domes are limited — on a clear, moonless night the Milky Way is realistically within reach.

Best nights this month in Feira Grande
Calculated for these coordinates and today's date — not a fixed list.
- 2026-10-21 — Orionids peak — up to 20/hour
Radiant in Orion. Visible from both hemispheres. The Moon is 72% lit on peak night, so lunar interference is moderate.
- 2026-10-25 — Full Moon
A 100%-lit Moon washes out faint objects, but lunar terrain along the limb is at its most striking — plan bright targets and planets instead of deep sky.
- 2026-11-08 — Darkest night of the coming month
The Moon is only 0% illuminated, giving the least lunar interference in the next 30 nights — the best window for the Milky Way and faint deep-sky targets from Feira Grande, Alagoas, Brazil.

- Can you see the aurora tonight in Feira Grande, Alagoas, Brazil?
- Feira Grande, Alagoas, Brazil is far enough from the pole that aurora only reaches overhead during a major geomagnetic storm — specifically when the planetary Kp index reaches about 9, a level reached only a handful of times per solar cycle.
- What is the stargazing light pollution level in Feira Grande, Alagoas, Brazil?
- Feira Grande, Alagoas, Brazil is a small town — typically Bortle class 1–4 (rural to excellent dark sky), where the Milky Way is usually visible on clear, moonless nights away from local lighting.

- Are there seasons for stargazing in Feira Grande, Alagoas, Brazil?
- 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.
