the north star. it takes 8 minutes for light to get from the sun to the earth. it takes half a billion years for light to get to us from the north star...i think. but i know that the sun is definetly closer.
No, the North Star (Polaris) is much farther from the Earth than the Moon. The Moon is approximately 238,855 miles away from Earth, while Polaris is about 434 light-years away.
The sun is a star, the closest one to Earth. The next nearest star to Earth is about 265,000 times farther away than the sun is.
Yes, stars are much farther away from Earth than the moon. The moon is approximately 238,855 miles away from Earth, while the closest star to Earth (Proxima Centauri) is about 4.24 light years away, which is significantly farther.
The less a star appears to move, the farther it is from Earth. Stars that do not appear to move are very far away from Earth, making their apparent motion negligible from our perspective due to the vast distances involved in space.
Stars are much farther away than the sun and the moon. The sun is the closest star to Earth, at about 93 million miles away, while the moon is much closer at about 238,855 miles away. Other stars in our galaxy are light years away from us.

No. Rigel is much farther away than Uranus. Uranus is in our Solar System.
No. The moon is the closest astronomical object to Earth. The closest star to Earth is the sun, which is about 400 times farther away than the moon. The next nearest star is more than 260,000 times farther away than the sun.

No, there is no dwarf star heading for Earth. The closest star to Earth is the Sun, which is a main-sequence star. Dwarf stars are common in the universe and many are much farther away from Earth.
The brightness of star will decrease as you observe it from farther away.

What star even tho this star has an absolute magnitude greater than that of Sirius it looks dimmer from earth since it's 100 times farther away
No. The sun is the nearest star to Earth. The next closes star is more than 250,000 times farther away. The sun is larger than the average star, but not a giant.
Yes, Polaris, the proper name for the pole star, is much farther away than the distance between the Earth and the Sun.
