Do the little dipper and big dipper move?
The North Pole Star, Polaris, is positioned – by a fortunate coincidence – directly over the north pole of the Earth’s rotation. So Polaris does not appear to move (much). Because of the way the Earth is spinning, the stars near Polaris appear to spin around Polaris! So the big dipper and the little dipper appear to make enormous circles in the sky centered on Polaris, going around once per day.
