Tonight from Bogotá

Tonight in Bogotá, Colombia, the sun sets at 18:11 local time and astronomical darkness — when even the faintest stars become visible — arrives at 19:27. The moon is in full phase, 100% illuminated. 5 major planets are above the horizon as night falls. Sunrise comes at 05:48.

At low latitude near the equator, night length is roughly constant year-round — about twelve hours regardless of season. From near the equator, both celestial poles sit on opposite horizons — the northern circumpolar stars (the Big Dipper, Polaris) and the southern (the Southern Cross, the Magellanic Clouds) are all reachable across the year.
