Polaris, also known as the North Star, is important because it serves as a reliable navigational reference point in the Northern Hemisphere. Its position nearly aligns with the North Celestial Pole, making it a consistent marker for determining direction. Historically, sailors and travelers have used Polaris to orient themselves and find their way, especially at night. Additionally, it holds cultural and symbolic significance in various societies as a symbol of guidance and stability.
It is not the brightest star in the sky, as many people think. It's important because it marks, roughly, the "North Pole of the sky".
Because it lets us navigate without GPS.
yes
Polaris, the same people who make the snowmobiles
Yes, it is very important to observers in the North Hemisphere. Great telescopes still align themselves with Polaris. Many amateurs, including myself, align their scopes with Polaris. This is know as polar alignment. It's to this day one of the most accurate forms of alignment.
It appears to remain stationary above the North Pole and that is why it is important.
PS-4 is the "Polaris" brand. Most people use 0-W40 as per most of the internet ATV forums out there.
No. Polaris is a multiple star system. In the late 18th century it was resolved into two components, Polaris A and Polaris B. Later, Polaris A was resolved further into Polaris Aa and Polaris Ab. Neither Polaris Aa nor Polaris Ab are red giants. Aa is a supergiant and Ab is a dwarf; both of them are spectral class F ("yellow-white").

Polaris chaincases typically require Polaris AGL (All-Season Gear Lube) or a similar gear oil specifically designed for snowmobiles and ATVs. It’s important to use the recommended oil to ensure optimal performance and prevent damage to the drivetrain. Always refer to the owner's manual for the specific viscosity and specifications required for your Polaris model.
The machine is designed by Polaris and built by Aeon.
