Local sky character in Mistelbach
Northern mid-latitudes · northern hemisphere · 228 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 48.6° above the horizon, so stars within 49° of it never set from here.
- About 87.5% 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 12.4° up, staying low, so a clear southern horizon matters.
- At 228 m elevation, roughly 3% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Mistelbach is small enough that local light domes are limited — on a clear, moonless night the Milky Way is realistically within reach.
