Local sky character in Miechow
Northern mid-latitudes · northern hemisphere · 298 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 50.4° above the horizon, so stars within 50° of it never set from here.
- About 88.5% 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 10.6° up, staying low, so a clear southern horizon matters.
- At 298 m elevation, roughly 3% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Miechow is small enough that local light domes are limited — on a clear, moonless night the Milky Way is realistically within reach.
