Tonight's sky above Kingstown, Saint George Parish, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines

Local sky character in Kingstown

Tropical / equatorial latitudes · northern hemisphere · 9 m elevation

  • The north celestial pole stands 13.2° above the horizon, so stars within 13° of it never set from here.
  • About 61.4% 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 47.8° up, clearing the horizon haze comfortably.
  • The Large Magellanic Cloud only reaches about 7.1° altitude, so it is a low, seasonal target rather than a year-round one.
  • At 9 m elevation, roughly 0% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
