Ursa Minor

Ursa Minor, also known as the Little Bear, is a constellation in the northern sky. It contains Polaris, the North Star, which is important for navigation because it stays nearly fixed above the North Pole, helping travelers find north. The constellation is made up of seven bright stars forming a shape that resembles a small bear or a dipper. Ursa Minor is visible most of the year in the Northern Hemisphere and has been used for navigation for centuries, thanks to Polaris's stable position in the sky.
