Tonight's sky above Nazran, Ingushetiya Republic, Russia

Local sky character in Nazran

Northern mid-latitudes · northern hemisphere · 523 m elevation

  • The north celestial pole stands 43.2° above the horizon, so stars within 43° of it never set from here.
  • About 84.2% 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 17.8° up, staying low, so a clear southern horizon matters.
  • At 523 m elevation, roughly 6% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
