Local sky character in Bhamo
Northern mid-latitudes · northern hemisphere · 115 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 24.3° above the horizon, so stars within 24° of it never set from here.
- About 70.5% 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 36.7° up, clearing the horizon haze comfortably.
- At 115 m elevation, roughly 1% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
