Due to Atmospheric refraction stars seem higher than they actually are in the sky.
Explanation:
Atmospheric Refraction is the deviation of light or another electromagnetic wave from a straight line as it passes through the atmosphere due to the variation in air density as a function of height. Due to it, Stars seem to be higher in the sky.
