The constellation Ursa Major, or ‘The Plough’ is shaped a little like a saucepan and can be seen on clear skies throughout the year in the UK. The two stars that make up the edge of the ‘saucepan’ furthest from its slightly crooked handle point towards Polaris, the North Star. By following an imaginary line from the pointers, approximately five times the distance between the pointers, you will find Polaris. Contrary to common misconceptions, Polaris is not the brightest star in the sky, but can still be found easily.
