The Celestial Tales

Dec 12 2021 • 28 mins

Constant as the Northern Star - Polaris

This time we explore the North Star, Polaris, through a story from Hinduism.  We'll meet Dhruva, a young boy whose family troubles will lead him to discover his own power.  We'll learn that sometimes the best thing you can do is stay right where you are.

In the astronomy section of the show, we'll find out what's so special (or not?) about Polaris.
