And stars are wrong too ;)

  Not just wrong, they are totally different stars. Good luck finding the Big Dipper down under! Maybe because I've seen northern hemisphere sky for 40+ years, the southern hemisphere sky is much more interesting to me. Just seeing Large/Small Magellanic clouds and realizing those are the closest galaxies to the Milky Way. Seeing Alpha/Beta Centauri and knowing those are the closest stars to our Sol. Just kind of different cool

    On the other hand, having a Pole Star is a great idea. It’s not _that_ hard to construct south out of the Southern Cross, but a star (close enough to) on the pole is smart…

      A rose by any other name is still a rose. Pretty sure a Brit said that.
