The Big Dipper and the Polaris

 














The Big Dipper in the northern sky and the North Star, Polaris. The Big Dipper is low in the northeast sky at nightfall, but it’ll climb upward during the evening hours, to reach its high point for the night in the wee hours after midnight. A well-known trick for finding Polaris, the legendary North Star, is that the two outermost stars in the bowl of the Big Dipper point to it. Those stars are Dubhe and Merak. They are well known among amateur astronomers as The Pointers. Photographed by Tony Fernandes at Rice Lake, Roseneath, Ontario, on the night of 31 July 2022.
