How to read this table
Each row is one night, labelled by the evening it starts. Astronomical darkness is the time the sun spends more than 18° below the horizon. Moon-free darkness subtracts any part of that window where the moon is above the horizon, which is the figure that actually limits what you can see. Ratings are computed from moon-free hours relative to the season’s maximum at this latitude, so a rating of “Good” in June in Bangkok does not mean the same number of hours as “Good” in December.
Weather is not included. These figures assume a clear sky.
