Local sky character in Santa Ana de Yacuma
Tropical / equatorial latitudes · southern hemisphere · 148 m elevation
- The south celestial pole stands 13.7° above the horizon, so stars within 14° of it never set from here.
- About 61.9% 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 74.7° up, passing almost directly overhead.
- The Large Magellanic Cloud only reaches about 34° altitude, so it is a low, seasonal target rather than a year-round one.
- At 148 m elevation, roughly 2% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Santa Ana de Yacuma is small enough that local light domes are limited — on a clear, moonless night the Milky Way is realistically within reach.
