Local sky character in Korsor
Northern mid-latitudes · northern hemisphere · 2 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 55.3° above the horizon, so stars within 55° of it never set from here.
- About 91.1% 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 5.7° up, staying low, so a clear southern horizon matters.
- At 2 m elevation, roughly 0% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Korsor is small enough that local light domes are limited — on a clear, moonless night the Milky Way is realistically within reach.
