Tonight's sky above Hakha, Chin State, Myanmar
Whether tonight is a good night for stargazing from Hakha, Chin State, Myanmar comes down to four real things: the Moon phase, cloud cover, which planets are up, and the current Kp index.
Local sky character in Hakha
Tropical / equatorial latitudes · northern hemisphere · 1799 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 22.6° above the horizon, so stars within 23° of it never set from here.
- About 69.3% 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 38.4° up, clearing the horizon haze comfortably.
- At 1799 m elevation, roughly 19% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Hakha 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 Hakha
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.
- 2026-10-26 — 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.
- 2026-11-05 — Taurids peak — up to 5/hour
Radiant in Taurus. Favours the Northern Hemisphere, which includes Hakha, Chin State, Myanmar. The Moon is 18% lit on peak night, so lunar interference is low.
- 2026-11-09 — 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 Hakha, Chin State, Myanmar.

- What is the stargazing light pollution level in Hakha, Chin State, Myanmar?
- Hakha, Chin State, Myanmar 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. These are typical ranges for this population size, not a measured reading for this exact spot — use tonight's Moon phase and the best-nights list above to time a visit away from direct lighting.
- Does Hakha, Chin State, Myanmar's elevation help stargazing?
- At 1799 m you are above a meaningful fraction of the atmosphere, which reduces extinction and scintillation — the reason major observatories are sited high.
- What should I plan for observing near Hakha, Chin State, Myanmar?
- High sites reward targets that suffer most from atmosphere: planets at high altitude, faint nebulae, and the Milky Way, which culminates around 38.4° here. Cold and thinner air are the practical constraints, not the sky.
