In the west, the Summer Triangle is going down — Altair is already scraping the horizon at under 4°. In the east, Capella rides high at 61° and Orion is climbing, with Betelgeuse and Rigel just clear of the skyline. Regulus sits exactly on the horizon, neither risen nor set. Polaris stands 65° up, almost two thirds of the way to the zenith: this is what the sky looks like near the top of the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt from real astronomical data.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery star on this print is placed using its actual catalogued position from the Hipparcos star catalogue, then calculated for the exact date, time and coordinates shown at the bottom of the poster.
