🌌 The star that looks still… but won’t stay forever 🌟 Polaris, also called the North Star, gets its name because it sits almost right above Earth’s North Pole. While other stars seem to move across the sky, Polaris stays almost in one spot — like a cosmic compass for the Northern Hemisphere 🧭✨ But it hasn’t always been the North Star! Because Earth slowly “wobbles” on its axis (a motion called precession), the title of North Star changes every 26,000 years. Thousands of years ago it was Thuba
