How low do you go?
Guys,
I'm trying to sort out where abouts to put my observing location here at home, and am currently measuring how much sky I can see from various spots.
What I'd like to know, is how low to the horizon would you normally observe?
I've heard a few people say it's not worth looking below 30 degrees above the horizon. True?
Also, seeing as at Sydney's latitude we get to see everything to the South at a viewable angle higher than 30 degrees at some time of the year, I'd imagine it would be worth sacrificing a low Southern horizon in favour of a low North horizon?
Thanks,
Jason.
