The sky of Portland
At 45° north latitude, Portland is ideally placed to observe circumpolar constellations like Ursa Major, Cassiopeia, and Cepheus. Short but clear summer nights reveal the Summer Triangle — Vega, Deneb, and Altair — while long winter nights offer extended hours of Orion and Pleiades viewing.
