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.
