Local sky character in Jordanow
Northern mid-latitudes · northern hemisphere · 497 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 49.6° above the horizon, so stars within 50° of it never set from here.
- About 88.1% 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 11.4° up, staying low, so a clear southern horizon matters.
- At 497 m elevation, roughly 6% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Jordanow is small enough that local light domes are limited — on a clear, moonless night the Milky Way is realistically within reach.
