A general ? to an expert . Why on some nights in a remote area does it seem as if the stars are lower or filling the sky just above your head . Other times maybe even in the same place they are higher ?

OT/One club member had a Celestron 14", Schmidt Cassegrain, another a 12" Newtonian Total membership had to be 50 or more although, sometimes, but only 20-25 regularly set up together on the planned trips to the desert dark sites.

Quite a few of them were great "star hoppers". I was super impressed. They could quickly locate and view almost any discernible deep space object. Ring Nebula was a particularly interesting looker.

Where did you go to college?

TIA
