The night sky over Bangkok
Every sky on this page is computed for Bangkok's own coordinates — the stars genuinely above the horizon, how high each one stands, and the moon's real phase and position. Not a stock star field with a place name printed on it.

Computed for October 3, 2026. Local time is estimated from Bangkok's longitude rather than a timezone database — accurate to within about an hour almost everywhere.
The sky from 14° north
From Bangkok the north celestial pole, marked by Polaris, stands 14° above the horizon. Over a year 99% of the celestial sphere clears that horizon; the rest never does, at any hour or season.
- Never sets
- Nothing — every constellation Bangkok can see also goes down again before morning.
- Never rises
- Chamaeleon, Apus, and Octans stay below Bangkok's horizon permanently.
Geometric horizon, at 13.75°, 100.49°. A figure counts as circumpolar only when all of it clears the pole distance, and hills, haze and city light will all take more of the sky than this arithmetic does.

Nights worth naming
Each one opens the free generator with Bangkok and that date already set — change either, or keep it and save the picture.
Looking for a different night — a birthday, an anniversary, the day you met? The free generator takes any date and any place, not just the ones listed here. For the moon on its own, which looked the same from everywhere on Earth that night, start from the moon phase calendar.
