Tonight's sky above Manlucahoc, Western Visayas, Philippines

Local sky character in Manlucahoc
Tropical / equatorial latitudes · northern hemisphere · 22 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 9.7° above the horizon, so stars within 10° of it never set from here.
- About 58.5% 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 51.3° up, clearing the horizon haze comfortably.
- The Large Magellanic Cloud only reaches about 10.6° altitude, so it is a low, seasonal target rather than a year-round one.
- At 22 m elevation, roughly 0% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Manlucahoc is small enough that local light domes are limited — on a clear, moonless night the Milky Way is realistically within reach.

- 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.
