I worked as an astronomer at a planetarium for about six years, and I used to get all kinds of questions. One of the most common was "where's the north star?" and "I thought it was the brightest star in the sky! Isn't it?"

How about it gang, how do you find the north star, and how bright is it? Please include references, or links, as I am asking this to help educate others on something that is a common misconception....

For a SF piece I'm using the humans have a shodily run ming colony at Sirus A. (The mining co uses lack of regulations to make a profit.)

The aliens have a colony on Altair.

But I don't know if that is on the other side. I want it close and can change star systems. Oh I need a 4th star system where the aliens started. same problem.

Others say that the Hydrogen of the Sun is burnt and transformed into helium, equal the millions of atomic bombs blowing up, but it ignores that the bombs do not remain unbroken as the Sun. Others say that the Sun anger to erase to the 10 million years for loses of energies. Still others speak that the Sun and the surplus of the explosion of the Big Bang.
