        <summary type="html"><![CDATA[Three stars everyone points at in summer, and whose dimensions nobody ever gives. We measured them in the catalogue the app runs on: 23.85 degrees, 34.20 and 38.01.

It is also the moment to say what nobody says: from Paris it culminates at 12.2 degrees, and it culminates in full twilight.
