Local sky character in Libano
Tropical / equatorial latitudes · northern hemisphere · 1575 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 4.9° above the horizon, so stars within 5° of it never set from here.
- About 54.3% 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 56.1° up, clearing the horizon haze comfortably.
- The Large Magellanic Cloud only reaches about 15.4° altitude, so it is a low, seasonal target rather than a year-round one.
- At 1575 m elevation, roughly 17% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Libano is small enough that local light domes are limited — on a clear, moonless night the Milky Way is realistically within reach.
