Local sky character in Agra
Northern mid-latitudes · northern hemisphere · 166 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 27.2° above the horizon, so stars within 27° of it never set from here.
- About 72.8% 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 33.8° up, staying low, so a clear southern horizon matters.
- At 166 m elevation, roughly 2% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
With a population above one million, Agra produces significant sky glow: expect the Moon, planets and bright stars from the centre, and travel outward for the Milky Way.
