Local sky character in Taliouine
Northern mid-latitudes · northern hemisphere · 1007 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 30.5° above the horizon, so stars within 31° of it never set from here.
- About 75.4% 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 30.5° up, staying low, so a clear southern horizon matters.
- At 1007 m elevation, roughly 11% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Taliouine is small enough that local light domes are limited — on a clear, moonless night the Milky Way is realistically within reach.

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.
- 2026-11-05 — Taurids peak — up to 5/hour
Radiant in Taurus. Favours the Northern Hemisphere, which includes Taliouine, Souss-Massa, Morocco. The Moon is 18% lit on peak night, so lunar interference is low.
- 2026-11-08 — 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 Taliouine, Souss-Massa, Morocco.

- What planets are visible tonight in Taliouine, Souss-Massa, Morocco?
- Tonight in Taliouine, Souss-Massa, Morocco, Mars, Saturn, Jupiter are visible to the naked eye after dark, based on this location's real ephemeris for tonight.
- When does darkness start tonight in Taliouine, Souss-Massa, Morocco?
- Astronomical darkness begins at 7:15 PM local time in Taliouine, Souss-Massa, Morocco tonight, the moment the Sun drops more than 18° below the horizon and the sky becomes fully dark for faint-object observing.
- Can you see the aurora tonight in Taliouine, Souss-Massa, Morocco?
- Taliouine, Souss-Massa, Morocco is far enough from the pole that aurora only reaches overhead during a major geomagnetic storm — specifically when the planetary Kp index reaches about 9, a level reached only a handful of times per solar cycle.
- What is the stargazing light pollution level in Taliouine, Souss-Massa, Morocco?
- Taliouine, Souss-Massa, Morocco 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. These are typical ranges for this population size, not a measured reading for this exact spot — use tonight's Moon phase and the best-nights list above to time a visit away from direct lighting.
- Does Taliouine, Souss-Massa, Morocco's elevation help stargazing?
- At 1007 m you are above a meaningful fraction of the atmosphere, which reduces extinction and scintillation — the reason major observatories are sited high. Oukaïmeden Observatory sits about 75 km from Taliouine, Souss-Massa, Morocco at 2700 m.
- What should I plan for observing near Taliouine, Souss-Massa, Morocco?
- High sites reward targets that suffer most from atmosphere: planets at high altitude, faint nebulae, and the Milky Way, which culminates around 30.5° here. Cold and thinner air are the practical constraints, not the sky.
- How dark does it actually get in Taliouine, Souss-Massa, Morocco tonight?
- About 10.0 hours of astronomical darkness (Sun more than 18° below the horizon). That is the real observing window for faint objects; brighter targets are workable from dusk onward.
