What country would an observer not see Polaris in the night sky at any time during the year?
An observer would not see Polaris, also known as the North Star, in the night sky at any time during the year if they are located south of the equator. This is because Polaris is positioned nearly directly above the North Pole, making it visible only in the Northern Hemisphere. As one travels further south, Polaris gradually sinks lower in the sky until it is no longer visible. Countries such as Brazil, Australia, and South Africa are examples where Polaris cannot be observed.
Why do people who live in Australia never see Polaris?
People who live in Australia can indeed see the star Polaris. They just have to visit the northern hemisphere to do it. The earth's axis has a reasonably stable orientation toward north/south; thanks to the stabilizing effect of the moon, it doesn't swing wildly out of place. So people viewing the sky from closer to the north pole can see the northern sky and not the southern sky. People viewing the sky from closer to the south pole can see the southern sky and not the northern. Polaris is very close to the point the north pole actually points to, which is why it is called 'Polaris', the pole star.
