Local sky character in Selayang Baru Utara
Tropical / equatorial latitudes · northern hemisphere · 76 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 3.3° above the horizon, so stars within 3° of it never set from here.
- About 52.8% 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 57.7° up, clearing the horizon haze comfortably.
- The Large Magellanic Cloud only reaches about 17° altitude, so it is a low, seasonal target rather than a year-round one.
- At 76 m elevation, roughly 1% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Selayang Baru Utara is a mid-sized urban area — bright constellations and planets work from town; faint deep-sky objects need a drive out.
