Best Answer

The star closest to the zenith depends on your location and the current time, as the location of stars in the sky changes throughout the night and with your position on Earth. The star that is currently at the zenith will be the one directly overhead in your local sky.

Is zenith distance at upper culmination lesser than zenith distance at lower culmination?

Yes, the zenith distance at upper culmination is less than the zenith distance at lower culmination. The zenith distance is the angle between the zenith (straight overhead point) and a celestial body. At upper culmination, the body is closest to the zenith, resulting in a smaller zenith distance. At lower culmination, the body is furthest from the zenith, leading to a greater zenith distance.

That depends on your latitude. Also, it does NOT depend on the season. If a star passes near the zenith in Summer, it will also pass near the Zenith in Winter, although it may not be visible in one season or the other (when it passes near the Zenith during the daytime).
