Why does the starry sky over the north pole appear to rotate counter clockwise around one star polaris?
That happens because that star Polaris just happens to be in line with the polar axis of the Earth, in other words a line from the south pole to the north pole would eventually pass through Polaris. Actually it is not exact but Polaris is within one degree of the true pole.So if you sit out and watch Polaris its direction will never change as the Earth rotates with you sitting on it. It's always in the same place (almost) and if you try an experiment with a globe you can see why.On the other hand all the other stars appear to rotate.
