Polaris is a close neighbor of our solar system, located only about 430 light years away, in
a direction very close to the direction in which the earth's north pole is currently pointing.
It can be seen in the sky directly north of any observer, at an angle above the northern
horizon equal to the observer's north latitude.
Polaris is also known as the "North Star" or the "pole Star". It is a bright star, positioned almost directly above the nortern end of the earth's axis of rotation. It is the end of the Little Dippers Handle.
First you need to find the asterism the "Big Dipper" or the "Plough". This is one of the easiest asterisms to find.
The create a line from the 2 right most stars and keep following this line up. The next bright star on this line is Polaris.
-- directly north of you
-- at an angle above the northern horizon that's equal to your north latitude
(If you're south of the equator, then forget it ... you can't see Polaris at all.)
Please note that Polaris is not exactly at the north pole of the sky. Polaris itself - and stars close to it in direction (i.e., small angular distance from Polaris) - seem to move in very small circles.
You mean the North Star Polaris (the non computer-related one?) If that is what you are referring to, then yes, you can. People have been using it for centuries to guide them in their travels.
Polaris is directly north of you, in the Little Dipper or Ursa Minor constellation, and
appears at the same angle above the northern horizon as your north latitude.
Polaris is the North Pole star, almost directly above the North Pole. If you can find the Big Dipper, follow the line made by the two stars at the lip of the bowl. Polaris is right there.
Polaris is the north star, meaning it is always visible up in the sky if you live above the equator.
Outdoors, anywhere in the northern hemisphere. Atmospheric conditions are
in general more favorable at locations more than 45 degrees north of the equator.
That's a reflection of Earth's movement around the Sun.
Not at all
Yes. Stars are enormous balls of hydrogen and helium that carry out nuclear fusion in their cores. They are extremely hot and so shine brightly. They appear as tiny points of light only because they are so distant.
Because in general the sea is warmer than the land during the night.
No. Day and night is determined by what part of Earth is facing the sun. Half of the Earth faces toward the sun and half of earth faces away from the sun. As the Earth spins on it's axis, we get daylight in one side of the earth, and night time in the other side of the earth. It is never possible to have night time, or day time, on all the earth at the exact same time.
by looking up into th sky at night
