Local sky character in Saint-Florentin
Northern mid-latitudes · northern hemisphere · 129 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 48° above the horizon, so stars within 48° of it never set from here.
- About 87.2% 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 13° up, staying low, so a clear southern horizon matters.
- At 129 m elevation, roughly 2% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Saint-Florentin is small enough that local light domes are limited — on a clear, moonless night the Milky Way is realistically within reach.
