Local sky character in Gobindpur
Tropical / equatorial latitudes · northern hemisphere · 198 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 22.6° above the horizon, so stars within 23° of it never set from here.
- About 69.2% 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 38.4° up, clearing the horizon haze comfortably.
- At 198 m elevation, roughly 2% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Gobindpur is small enough that local light domes are limited — on a clear, moonless night the Milky Way is realistically within reach.
