Difference between Atmospheric refraction and Circumpolar star

Atmospheric refraction vs. Circumpolar star

Atmospheric refraction is the deviation of light or other electromagnetic wave from a straight line as it passes through the atmosphere due to the variation in air density as a function of height. A circumpolar star is a star, as viewed from a given latitude on Earth, that never sets below the horizon due to its apparent proximity to one of the celestial poles.

Similarities between Atmospheric refraction and Circumpolar star

Atmospheric refraction and Circumpolar star have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Horizon, Horizontal coordinate system, Star, Sun.

Horizon

The horizon or skyline is the apparent line that separates earth from sky, the line that divides all visible directions into two categories: those that intersect the Earth's surface, and those that do not.
