Answer 1

The altitude of Polaris, also known as the North Star, from Buffalo, NY, is approximately 42 degrees above the northern horizon. This is because Polaris is situated nearly directly above the North Pole, so its altitude corresponds closely to the observer's latitude. Since Buffalo is located at a latitude of about 43 degrees North, Polaris will be nearly at that angle in the sky.
