Tonight's sky above Touih, Bas-Sassandra District, Ivory Coast

Local sky character in Touih
Tropical / equatorial latitudes · northern hemisphere · 123 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 5.3° above the horizon, so stars within 5° of it never set from here.
- About 54.6% 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 55.7° up, clearing the horizon haze comfortably.
- The Large Magellanic Cloud only reaches about 15° altitude, so it is a low, seasonal target rather than a year-round one.
- At 123 m elevation, roughly 1% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Touih is small enough that local light domes are limited — on a clear, moonless night the Milky Way is realistically within reach.
