Local sky character in Sao Miguel do Tocantins
Tropical / equatorial latitudes · southern hemisphere · 182 m elevation
- The south celestial pole stands 5.6° above the horizon, so stars within 6° of it never set from here.
- About 54.8% 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 66.6° up, clearing the horizon haze comfortably.
- The Large Magellanic Cloud only reaches about 25.9° altitude, so it is a low, seasonal target rather than a year-round one.
- At 182 m elevation, roughly 2% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Sao Miguel do Tocantins is small enough that local light domes are limited — on a clear, moonless night the Milky Way is realistically within reach.
