    Whether it's the Big Dipper or the North Star, they're actually fiery stars, objects like the Sun that can emit light through nuclear fusion reactions. Not only that, but these stars are all bigger and brighter than the sun in reality. It's just that they are far away from the solar system, up to tens or hundreds of light-years away from Earth, so we can only see stars.

    There are some differences between the North Star and the Big Dipper, it can be found that the North Star is the name of a star, and the Big Dipper is composed of 7 stars, because it is shaped like a bucket, so it is called the Big Dipper.

    First of all, let's understand the role of the North Star, because it can help people accurately point out the direction, and the direction pointed by the North Star is the direction of due north, and the general role of finding the Big Dipper is to find the North Star, and there will be two stars under the North Star, which will be more convenient to find on the connected extension line. If you want to distinguish the difference between the North Star and the Big Dipper, you can first make a distinction in the number, and you will find that the number is different, because the North Star is the name of a star, and the Big Dipper is composed of 7 stars, because the shape is similar to the bucket, and finally it is directly named the passive seven stars.

    The role of the North Star is also different, the biggest role of the North Star is to help people point the direction, because the direction of the North Star is generally due north, and the role of finding the Big Dipper is to be able to find the North Star. Many people don't know how to find the North Star, in fact, they will have an extension line directly under every two stars, and it is very easy to find it above the extension line.

    The position will also be different, you will find that the Big Dipper belongs to a part of the constellation Ursa Major, and you can learn from the graphics that the seven stars fly to the seven stars, in fact, they are on the tail of the constellation Ursa Major, and 6 of the 7 stars belong to the second star, and one star is a third-class star, which is directly connected through the bucket mouth, connecting the two stars together, and extending in the direction of the jitter, about 5 times away to be able to find the location of the North Star. For some friends who like to study carefully, it is not particularly difficult to find these stars, and it is also necessary to find a certain way to correctly find them that can be memorized according to the shape or according to the direction, which is very convenient.

    As the old saying goes: "The bucket handle refers to the east, and the world is spring", and the bucket handle here refers to the "ladle" of the Big Dipper. Seven bright stars are arranged in a spoon shape in the night sky, which is the famous Big Dipper;

    It's spring, and the Big Dipper appears in the northern sky, with the handle pointing east. With the Big Dipper, we can easily identify the direction of geography due north. Because the two stars of the spoon can be found by the North Star, which is currently the brightest star in the night sky from the North Celestial Pole, it is always near the North Celestial Pole and can indicate due north.

    Polaris is always due north of the Earth, which seems a little magical. In the galaxy composition of the entire universe, the direction of due north of Polaris is quite sensitive, which is what makes Polaris unique. We can't help but ask the question, do Polaris and the entire Big Dipper belong to the same galaxy?

    In fact, the Big Dipper does not belong to the same galaxy. Polaris belongs to the constellation Ursa Minor, which is the brightest star in the constellation Ursa Minor, with the astronomical code name Ursa Minor. Polaris is not far from Earth, only 434 light-years.

    In the entire constellation of the bear, the North Star is located next to the bright dan of this bear and the tip of the tail, so it is quite representative.

    The secrets of Polaris don't end there. In fact, it is also the legendary three-in-one star system, which is the so-called three-body problem. The other two companion stars are inconspicuous, and this star in the northern sky of the earth is now difficult to see, because of the influence of the wild lights of the oak on the starry sky, and the North Star will continue to be dim.

    In addition to Polaris, the star of the Big Dipper, codenamed Tianshu, belongs to the constellation Ursa Major, also known as Greedy Wolf, which is only 124 light-years away from us, and the Big Dipper is the constellation Ursa Major, which is about 79 light-years away from Earth. The Big Dipper all belong to the constellation Ursa Major, except for the North Star, which belongs to the constellation Ursa Minor.

    Polaris is also farther away from Earth in absolute terms, with the exception of Ursa Major, the rest of the Big Dipper are all within 100 light-years of Earth. I remember the clear night sky when I was a child, and the Big Dipper was always the brightest combination in the northern sky. Falling asleep watching the bright stars in the sky on a clear summer night may be something that children nowadays will never get.

    What do you think?
