Orange.
The star Polaris is at the tip of the handle of the little dipper or Ursa Minor. Kochab is at the end of the ladle.
Beta Ursae Minoris (Kochab) is the brightest star in the bowl of the "Little Dipper" - part of the constellation Ursa Minor.It has a surface temperature of about 4,030 Kelvin.
A giant orange start in the constellation of the Little Dipper (Ursa Minor). More frequently spelled Kochab.
Yes, the name Polaris is used to refer to the North Star. Polaris used to be Thuban, then was Kochab, is now Cynosura and will, one day, be Elrai.
Polaris is the name used for the star above the North Pole. It used to be Thuban. Then Kochab was nearer the celestial pole and now it is Cynosura. In the future, it will be Elrai.
Yes there is a good possibility that Kochab is going to or has gone supernova. The Star is in the right phase and also has sufficient mass to experience a supernova. However, this has nothing to do with myths or predictions. Nostradamis may have said "It would appear from the experience that Kochab went supernova" but how would he know? As nothing, especially information can travel faster than the speed of light, there is no way he could have known that Kochab had gone supernova without seeing the light as well. Considering the letter was dated in 1558 and Kochab is only about 120 light years away, we should have seen the outburst in 1678! This was also one of the way to many basic flaws in the movie 2012 supernova.

The present star is in the late stages its life as Polaris. In the Roman Era, the North Pole was more or less equidistant from Kochab and the present Pole Star. In the year 3000, Alrai will be closer to the Celestial Pole and the present star will cease to be Polaris.
