Explanation:

Due to atmospheric refraction, the stars seem to be higher in the sky than they actually are. This can be explained as follows : Light from a star is refracted (bent) as it leaves space (a vacuum) and enters the earth's atmosphere. Air higher up in the sky is rarer but that nearer the earth's surface is denser.
