Answer:

Polaris is located in the constellation of Ursa Minor, the Little Bear. It sometimes also goes by the name "Stella Polaris." The seven stars from which we derive a bear are also known as the Little Dipper. Polaris, the North Star, lies at the end of the handle of the Little Dipper, whose stars are rather faint.

Answer:Pole Star always point towards north

Explanation:pole star is very helpful in finding directions . You will better understand this by an example- Suppose you are in the middle of an ocean with your boat and you don't have compass to find direction and if you want to go in North - East direction . So you need to first find the East direction and we all know how to find East direction as to find it we just have to see the direction in which sun is rising .So now we know East direction and to find North we just need to see in the night sky. As in the night sky one of the steadiest star would be the pole star which is always situated in North direction. So as soon as we will find the pole star we will be able to tell where the north direction is. So now we know both the required directions - East and North so now you can continue your journey through the ocean towards North - East in your boat.
