Tonight's sky above Reggio nell'Emilia, Emilia-Romagna, Italy

Local sky character in Reggio nell'Emilia

Northern mid-latitudes · northern hemisphere · 58 m elevation

  • The north celestial pole stands 44.7° above the horizon, so stars within 45° of it never set from here.
  • About 85.2% 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 16.3° up, staying low, so a clear southern horizon matters.
  • At 58 m elevation, roughly 1% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
