Local sky character in Siverek
Northern mid-latitudes · northern hemisphere · 787 m elevation
- The north celestial pole stands 37.8° above the horizon, so stars within 38° of it never set from here.
- About 80.6% 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 23.2° up, staying low, so a clear southern horizon matters.
- At 787 m elevation, roughly 9% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
Siverek is a town-scale settlement, so the edge of the built-up area is often dark enough for the Milky Way on moonless nights.
