Guiding Light: The Marvels of Polaris, the North Star

Polaris, our North Star, is one of the most well-known stars in the
night sky. But why is it so well known? What are its special
characteristics that make it so special? It is far from being the
brightest star in the night sky (it’s the 48th brightest), yet it
has an amazing reputation. We will talk about the special place
that Polaris inhabits right now, and how this will change over the
very long-term.
