Northville, MI is at 42 degrees, 26 minutes North. The altitude of the North Star is between 42 degrees and 43 degrees, depending on the time. (Polaris isn't exactly at the North Pole; it is about 1/2 degree off.)
Since Polaris is (more or less) directly over the celestial pole, for any point in the northern hemisiphere it will be a number of degrees above the (theoretical) horizon equivalent to the latitude of the location you're observing it from. Its altitude above the actual horizon may be different, due the fact that the Earth isn't a perfect sphere.
Maximum inclination of moon's orbit to the ecliptic = 5.3°Current inclination of the ecliptic to the celestial equator = 23.4°Moon's maximum declination = 5.3° + 23.4° = + 28.7°Maximum altitude of the celestial equator at 42° north latitude = 90° - 42° = 48°Moon's maximum altitude at 42° north latitude = 48° + 28.7° = 76.7°
The coordinates in the United States of America for Boston, Massachusetts are along north latitude and west longitude. The exact latitude location is 42 degrees 21 minutes 28 seconds North. The exact longitude location is 71 degrees 03 minutes 42 seconds West.
Albany's absolute location is approximately 42.6526° N latitude and 73.7562° W longitude.
If you are in Binghamton at the moment, 7:49 pm, 10/14 Polaris is at 41 degrees 57 minutes 21 seconds. I have 42 degrees 5 minutes as the north latiude of Binghamton. If you can move to 42 degrees 4 minutes, you will have an altitude for Polaris of almost exactly 42 degrees. Yes, Polaris does move a little; it is not perfectly in line with the earth's pole.
The altitude of Polaris, also known as the North Star, is approximately equal to the observer's latitude. In Mamaroneck, which is located at about 42 degrees North latitude, Polaris would be roughly 42 degrees above the northern horizon. This means that if you were to look north from Mamaroneck, Polaris would appear at an angle of 42 degrees from the ground.
