Local sky character in Pyay

Tropical / equatorial latitudes · northern hemisphere · 2 m elevation

  • The north celestial pole stands 18.8° above the horizon, so stars within 19° of it never set from here.
  • About 66.1% 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 42.2° up, clearing the horizon haze comfortably.
  • The Large Magellanic Cloud only reaches about 1.5° altitude, so it is a low, seasonal target rather than a year-round one.
  • At 2 m elevation, roughly 0% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.

  • 2026-11-17 — Leonids peak — up to 15/hour

    Radiant in Leo. Visible from both hemispheres. The Moon is 45% lit on peak night, so lunar interference is moderate.
