Has Polaris always been the "North Star"?
A) No, because the Earth's axis slowly changes the direction it points. B) Yes, because the stars are unchanging. C) No, because it is a young star that only formed a few hundred years ago. D) No, because the Milky Way blocked our line of site to it for a long time.
The average speed of stars relative to the Sun in the solar neighborhood is about 20 km/s. Suppose you discover a star in the solar neighborhood that is moving relative to the Sun at a much higher speed, say, 200 km/s
What kind of orbit does this star probably have around the Milky Way? In what part of the galaxy does it spend most of its time? Explain.
