Why can I see the Big Dipper in Shandong every morning in winter?

The Big Dipper is the best direction indicator, so there is also a saying that the earth moves and the sky does not move. In other words, no matter where you are, Polaris, the Big Dipper you see, is in your north. Whether you are in Shandong or Shanxi Big Dipper, you are in the north, which has nothing to do with where you are.

Polaris, also known as Beichen and Zixing, refers to the star closest to the North Celestial Pole. At present, it refers to "Gou Chen Yi".

Polaris is located at the northern end of the earth's axis, which is five times as long as the extension line connecting Tian Xuan and Shu Tian in the Big Dipper. Because the earth rotates and Polaris is on the axis of celestial rotation, it is still relative to other stars. Polaris is about 433 light years away from the earth and has a diameter of about 52 million kilometers.
