Tonight's sky above Reyes, Beni Department, Bolivia
Whether tonight is a good night for stargazing from Reyes, Beni Department, Bolivia comes down to four real things: the Moon phase, cloud cover, which planets are up, and the current Kp index.
Local sky character in Reyes
Tropical / equatorial latitudes · southern hemisphere · 189 m elevation
- The south celestial pole stands 14.3° above the horizon, so stars within 14° of it never set from here.
- About 62.3% 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 75.3° up, passing almost directly overhead.
- The Large Magellanic Cloud only reaches about 34.6° altitude, so it is a low, seasonal target rather than a year-round one.
- At 189 m elevation, roughly 2% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Reyes is small enough that local light domes are limited — on a clear, moonless night the Milky Way is realistically within reach.

Radiant in Orion. Visible from both hemispheres. The Moon is 72% lit on peak night, so lunar interference is moderate.
- 2026-10-26 — 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.
- 2026-11-09 — 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 Reyes, Beni Department, Bolivia.

- What is the stargazing light pollution level in Reyes, Beni Department, Bolivia?
- Reyes, Beni Department, Bolivia is a small town — typically Bortle class 1–4 (rural to excellent dark sky), where the Milky Way is usually visible on clear, moonless nights away from local lighting.
