The Pole Star, or Polaris, is directly above Earth's North Pole. From our perspective on Earth, every star in the sky pivots around the Pole Star, causing them to rise and set. Because of it's position over the North Pole, it's the only star that doesn't appear to move. It also is used to assist humans in finding north - since it's stays in the same place all through the night and year.As the Earth rotates on its axis, the stars appear to move across the night sky. The stars above the horizon will create a circle, while the Pole Star hardly moves at all. This makes the Pole Star fixed and is used as a pointer to the North - very important in navigation.
