Local sky character in Sao Bento do Tocantins

Tropical / equatorial latitudes · southern hemisphere · 185 m elevation

  • The south celestial pole stands 6° above the horizon, so stars within 6° of it never set from here.
  • About 55.2% 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 67° up, clearing the horizon haze comfortably.
  • The Large Magellanic Cloud only reaches about 26.3° altitude, so it is a low, seasonal target rather than a year-round one.
  • At 185 m elevation, roughly 2% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
