Tonight's sky above Trinidad, Beni Department, Bolivia

Local sky character in Trinidad
Tropical / equatorial latitudes · southern hemisphere · 155 m elevation
- The south celestial pole stands 14.8° above the horizon, so stars within 15° of it never set from here.
- About 62.8% 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 75.8° up, passing almost directly overhead.
- The Large Magellanic Cloud only reaches about 35.1° altitude, so it is a low, seasonal target rather than a year-round one.
- At 155 m elevation, roughly 2% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Trinidad is a town-scale settlement, so the edge of the built-up area is often dark enough for the Milky Way on moonless nights.
