Unapologetic """"AI"""" hater aetios some interesting facts about the north star<br><br>Vega was once the north star, around 12000BC and it will be again in about 10000 years, although quite roughly: 6 degrees removed from true north. This is because the axis of the earth precesses slowly and points towards different stars.<br><br>In the past thousands of years the axis of the earth has been creeping closer and closer to Polaris, this will continue until 2080 when Polaris will be less than half a degree from the real north. For comparison, when Columbus sailed to North America in 1492, Polaris was more than 3 degrees removed from the real north. In that sense we live in a quite unique time frame!<br><br><a class="hashtag" href="https://sns.minovsky.space/tag/astronomy" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#astronomy</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://sns.minovsky.space/tag/polaris" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#polaris</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://sns.minovsky.space/tag/til" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#til</a>

Flipboard Science Desk<p>Four astronauts on the Polaris Dawn mission have now traveled farther into outer space than any human has since NASA’s Apollo era ended more than 50 years ago. Two of the astronauts, Sarah Gillis and Anna Menon, share the distinction of traveling father from Earth than any woman has before. The crew, commanded by billionaire entrepreneur Jared Isaacman, is on day two of a five-day itinerary which includes a spacewalk.
