Ursa Minor (also known as the Little Bear) is visible year-round in the Northern Hemisphere. It cannot be seen from the Southern Hemisphere. Within this constellation is an asterism called the Little Dipper. The last star in the handle of the Little Dipper is the North Star, officially called Polaris. If you can see the North Star, you can see the Little Dipper and you are looking at Ursa Minor.
