Tonight's sky above Sariwon-si, North Hwanghae, North Korea

Local sky character in Sariwon-si
Northern mid-latitudes · northern hemisphere · 20 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 38.5° above the horizon, so stars within 39° of it never set from here.
- About 81.1% 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 22.5° up, staying low, so a clear southern horizon matters.
- At 20 m elevation, roughly 0% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Sariwon-si is a mid-sized urban area — bright constellations and planets work from town; faint deep-sky objects need a drive out.
