Hi I'm confused, If I set my RA to my latitude of 36 deg and viewing East stars are tracking in line, now if I view West am I still tracking as before and is the same said for viewing North or South.

Now the same question but using the polar star? or do I select differant star for differant directions.

As I said I'm confused about this, my logic suggest a change of 90,180,270 deg viewing direction changes the travel of the stars direction with respect to the observer.

Any help with this one would be apreciated.
