If im 26s that should mean the pole is a further 64 degrees south of zenith, so 26 degrees above the southern horizon. Is that better....


But what's this about the SMC being "below" the SCP. Tonight, you'll find the SMC directly between the SCP and the zenith (OK, let's call it "above" for the moment), at around 11:15pm! It's a good time for looking at the SMC and globular 47Tuc (and a few other nearby globular clusters)
