This is a matter of basic spherical astronomy and celestial mechanics that does not require citation.

The analysis

The claim describes a standard geometrical consequence of latitude and declination in celestial mechanics (similar to how the Sun or stars can appear north or south of an observer). Because it is a matter of basic everyday astronomical observation and spherical geometry, it is classified as common knowledge and requires no citation, despite none of the retrieved papers directly discussing this specific observational phenomenon.
