The elevation of Polaris (the North Star) above the Northern horizon is almost
equal to the North latitude of the place where you are when you see it.

That means that when you stand on the Equator, the North Star is exactly
ON the Northern horizon, and if you stand anywhere South of the Equator,
the North Star is always BELOW the horizon.

But . . .

Everybody in the Southern hemisphere CAN see the SOUTH pole of the sky,
which nobody in the Northern hemisphere can ever see.

Sadly, there's no bright star anywhere near the South pole of the sky,
to mark it the way Polaris marks the sky's North pole for us.

Is Germany in Northern or in southern?
