You can see it from anywhere in North America, and the parts of South America that are north of the equator.
to detect Polaris also known as "north star" you first will have to be in the northern hemisphere of the globe if you are south of the equator you will not be able to see Polaris. second you find the big dipper at the very end of the cup part not near the handle there will be the start of the little dipper at the very end of the little dippers handle the brighter star is Polaris
Yes, you can see Polaris from China.
If you are north of the Tropic of Capricorn, winter. The Earth is then tilted in a way that Polaris is in the darkest part of the sky that it can be in. It also can be seen from further south than any other time of year, so in some places, winter is the only season to see Polaris. If you are south of the Tropic of Capricorn, you will not see Polaris no matter what season it is.
An observer would not see Polaris, also known as the North Star, in the night sky at any time during the year if they are located south of the equator. This is because Polaris is positioned nearly directly above the North Pole, making it visible only in the Northern Hemisphere. As one travels further south, Polaris gradually sinks lower in the sky until it is no longer visible. Countries such as Brazil, Australia, and South Africa are examples where Polaris cannot be observed.

Polaris is the name of the north pole star. It isn't EXACTLY above the North Pole, but pretty close; only about one-half a degree off. If you were to watch Polaris through the night, you wouldn't notice any movement, but in a long-time-exposure photo, you can see that Polaris makes a TINY circle around the perfect North.
Hello everyone, Polaris Is Not visible from Australia. :)
Yes, but you can only see it in the Spring time late at night.
All the stars appear to move in the night sky, because the Earth is spinning. But for ONE star, the movement is so small that you can't see it without a camera. This star is Polaris, the north pole star. On a long time-exposure photograph, you can see Polaris making a TINY circle in the sky above the north pole.
NO!
