Polaris is almost exactly above the North Pole so other stars appear to rotate around it as the Earth rotates, around the pole, UNDER Polaris.
Stars, except the trivial case of OUR sun, are immobile. The Earth rotates directly under Polaris, around the polar axis through both North and South poles.
No, there are not moons or stars ON planet earth, but there are moons and stars around planet earth. == ==
The positions of moons, stars, and planets in the night sky are determined by their orbits and the relative motion of celestial bodies. As Earth rotates on its axis and orbits the Sun, we observe different celestial configurations throughout the night and across seasons. Additionally, the gravitational interactions between these bodies influence their paths, leading to phenomena such as retrograde motion in planets. Overall, the night sky is a dynamic display shaped by the complex movements of celestial objects.
The Sun's annual motion is from west to east relative to the fixed stars due to the Earth's orbit around the Sun. This apparent motion is caused by the Earth's revolution around the Sun, giving the illusion that the Sun is moving against the background of stars in the sky.
The apparent westward movement of a planet is known as retrograde motion. This phenomenon occurs when a superior planet passes Earth in its orbit, making it appear to move backward in the sky relative to the stars.
No stars are flaming balls of various gasses and moons are planetismals that come from nearby planets
The actual motion of stars is very hard to see because stars are very far away.
There is no statement below that even remotely addresses that topic.

The intrinsic motion of stars refers to their individual motion within a galaxy, which is influenced by factors such as their orbits around the galaxy's center, interactions with other stars, and their velocity relative to us on Earth. This motion is distinct from the apparent motion we observe due to the rotation of the Earth and the motion of the galaxy itself.

On the contrary! A star has planets, which circulate it. And planets have moons. Stars do not circle planets.
No, circular motion occurs in many different contexts beyond Earth. It can be observed in the motion of celestial bodies like planets orbiting the Sun, as well as in the motion of objects in rotating machinery, such as wheels or pulleys. Circular motion is a common phenomenon in both natural and human-made systems throughout the universe.
Stars are made of plasma, but all known moons are solid.
They don't. It's the planets and moons that reflect the light of stars.
No, stars and moons are two different astronomical bodies. Stars are massive bodies that emit light and produce energy through nuclear fusion, while moons are natural satellites that orbit planets. Moons do not produce their own light but reflect light from the Sun.
No. Stars are much larger than planets or moons. Stars are suns, some larger and brighter than our own.
