Ursa Minor contains the pole star, Polaris, and the asterism known as the Little Dipper. From most locations in the Northern Hemisphere, all of the stars in Ursa Minor are circumpolar. Does that mean these stars are also above the horizon during the day? Explain.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

By definition, the circumpolar stars are those stars which neither rise nor set. They trace a complete circle around the pole star. That means they are always above the horizon. They might not be visible during the daytime because of Sunlight and atmosphere but that doesn't mean they are below the horizon. They will still be above the horizon but will be visible only during the night time.
