Tonight's sky above Hrodna, Grodnenskaya, Belarus

Local sky character in Hrodna
Northern mid-latitudes · northern hemisphere · 142 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 53.7° above the horizon, so stars within 54° of it never set from here.
- About 90.3% 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 7.3° up, staying low, so a clear southern horizon matters.
- At 142 m elevation, roughly 2% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Hrodna is a mid-sized urban area — bright constellations and planets work from town; faint deep-sky objects need a drive out.
