In 14,000 years from now, the sun's output may have changed by a few percent,

or our average distance from it may have changed slightly. Either of those changes

would have a profound effect on the Earth's average climate.

But the precession of the rotation axis has no effect on the climate or the seasons.

Is the little dipper north south east or west?

What star does the north pole point toward?

The North Pole points toward the North Star, also known as Polaris. This star sits almost directly above the Earth's true North Pole, making it a useful navigational tool for determining direction.


When the northern hemisphere points toward the sun what season is it?

it is summer in the northern hemisphere and winter in the Southern Hemisphere.


What is the earths axis point?

The north end of the earth's axis points toward a point in the sky that's a little less than 1/3 of a degree from Polaris. That's why, as close as we can tell by our eyes, Polaris appears to mark the north pole of the sky, everything else we can see appears to circle Polaris, and we call Polaris the 'North Star'. The south end of the earth's axis points to a spot in the southern sky with no comparably bright star nearby to mark it.


How will seasons on Earth change when the Earth's axis points away from Polaris and toward Vega?

If Earth's axis were to point away from Polaris and towards Vega, the North Star would change, leading to a shift in the orientation of the seasons. This change in axial alignment would affect the angle at which sunlight hits different parts of the Earth, potentially altering the duration and intensity of seasons in each hemisphere. Additionally, it would impact the patterns of daylight and darkness across the planet.


What is the direction of the big dipper?

The Big Dipper always points toward the North Star, also known as Polaris. This makes it a useful tool for navigation, as it can help you find north in the night sky.
