The star that can only be seen in the northern hemisphere is Polaris, also known as the North Star. It is located nearly directly above the North Pole and serves as a crucial navigational reference for travelers in the northern regions. While it is not the brightest star in the sky, its unique position makes it a reliable indicator of true north. Polaris is part of the Ursa Minor constellation and is circumpolar, meaning it is visible all year round in the northern hemisphere.
No, the North Star (Polaris) is only visible in the Northern Hemisphere, and cannot be seen from the Southern Hemisphere. Instead, the Southern Hemisphere has its own celestial pole, which is marked by the Southern Cross constellation.
Yes, because it is in the northern hemisphere.
It's most easily seen from the southern hemisphere where it's high in the sky in the winter. In the northern hemisphere it is low in the southern sky in the summer so can be elusive. The main star is Antares.
Spica is in the constellation Virgo. It is the brightest star in the Virgo constellation and can be seen in the northern hemisphere during spring.
Lyra contains the third brightest star in the northern hemisphere, Vega. From spring to autumn, it is clearly visible, while during the winter months, it is visible low on the northern horizon.

Polaris, the pole star.
Yes, Sirius is a bright star and is visible in the northern hemisphere during the summer months. It is one of the brightest stars in the night sky and can be seen low on the horizon in the southeast during the summer evenings.
It is best seen during the winter in the northern hemisphere.
The star Perseus is a B-type main sequence star. Perseus can be seen in the Northern hemisphere during the winter.
Yes, because it is in the northern hemisphere.
Vulpecula is a faint constellation in the northern hemisphere.It is located in the "middle" of Deneb, Altair and Vega.See related link for a star map.
The North Star is visible from any part of the northern hemisphere. So on a clear night, it can be seen from Dublin.
It is a star called Polaris. It is not a particularly bright star. It is important though. As seen from the Northern Hemisphere, it is normally seen to be in the same location and all other stars appear to rotate around that point.
It's most easily seen from the southern hemisphere where it's high in the sky in the winter. In the northern hemisphere it is low in the southern sky in the summer so can be elusive. The main star is Antares.
Spica is in the constellation Virgo. It is the brightest star in the Virgo constellation and can be seen in the northern hemisphere during spring.
Lyra contains the third brightest star in the northern hemisphere, Vega. From spring to autumn, it is clearly visible, while during the winter months, it is visible low on the northern horizon.
