Tonight's sky above Odiongan, Mimaropa, Philippines

Local sky character in Odiongan
Tropical / equatorial latitudes · northern hemisphere · 12 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 12.4° above the horizon, so stars within 12° of it never set from here.
- About 60.7% 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 48.6° up, clearing the horizon haze comfortably.
- The Large Magellanic Cloud only reaches about 7.9° altitude, so it is a low, seasonal target rather than a year-round one.
- At 12 m elevation, roughly 0% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Odiongan 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 Odiongan
Calculated for these coordinates and today's date — not a fixed list.
- 2026-08-12 — 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 Odiongan, Mimaropa, Philippines.
- 2026-08-12 — Perseids peak — up to 100/hour
Radiant in Perseus. Favours the Northern Hemisphere, which includes Odiongan, Mimaropa, Philippines. The Moon is 2% lit on peak night, so lunar interference is none.
- 2026-08-27 — 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.
Odiongan, Mimaropa, Philippines stargazing questions

- Are there seasons for stargazing in Odiongan, Mimaropa, Philippines?
- 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.
- How dark does it actually get in Odiongan, Mimaropa, Philippines tonight?
- About 9.0 hours of astronomical darkness (Sun more than 18° below the horizon). That is the real observing window for faint objects; brighter targets are workable from dusk onward.
