Question

what is a constellation ? which two group of stars point to the pole star ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

To locate the Pole Star, all You have to do is to find the big dipper pointer stars dubhe and Merak.

A constellation is an area on the celestial sphere in which a group of visible stars forms a perceived outline or pattern, typically representing an animal, mythological person or creature, or an inanimate object. The origins of the earliest constellations likely go back to prehistory.

Answer 2

Answer:

In Ursa Major constellation there are two pointer stars because the line joining them points to the direction of Pole Star. If we observe the Ursa Major constellation at different times in the night, we will find that it appears to move from east to west.The Pole Star is the star that is known to retain its position in the sky always. We can locate the position of the Pole Star with the help of the constellation Saptarishi. If an imaginary line is drawn joining the "pointer stars"of the Saptarishi and extended further, it will point to the Pole Star.
