Polaris (Î± Ursae Minoris, Î± UMi, commonly the North Star or Pole Star) is the brightest star in the constellation Ursa Minor, and the 50th brightest star in the night sky.It is very close to the north celestial pole, making it the current northern pole star.It is a multiple star, comprising the main star, Î± UMi Aa, which is a supergiant; two smaller companions, Î± UMi B and Î± UMi Ab; and two distant components, Î± UMi C and Î± UMi D. Î± UMi B was discovered in 1780 by William Herschel.he moving of Polaris towards, and in the future away from, the celestial pole, is due to the precession of the equinoxes. The celestial pole will move away from Î± UMi after the 21st century, passing close by Gamma Cephei by about the 41st century.
