Tonight's sky above Holice, Pardubice Region, Czechia

Local sky character in Holice
Northern mid-latitudes · northern hemisphere · 253 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 50.1° above the horizon, so stars within 50° of it never set from here.
- About 88.3% 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 10.9° up, staying low, so a clear southern horizon matters.
- At 253 m elevation, roughly 3% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Holice is small enough that local light domes are limited — on a clear, moonless night the Milky Way is realistically within reach.
