Is it true The horizon is the point where to an observer the earth and sky appear to meet?

Yes, that statement is true. The horizon is the line where the Earth's surface and the sky seem to converge from an observer's viewpoint. This line is influenced by the observer's elevation and the curvature of the Earth, giving the impression of a meeting point between land and sky. However, in reality, the Earth is round, and the horizon is simply the limit of what we can see.

What does it mean if the north star sinks below the horizon?

If the North Star sinks below the horizon, it means you are moving southward. The North Star is located directly above the Earth's North Pole, so as you move away from the North Pole towards the equator in a southerly direction, the angle of the North Star above the horizon will decrease, eventually causing it to disappear below the horizon.
