The above statement is true.
We can locate a pole star with the help of the constellation Ursa major.
Ursa Major is a constellation in the northern sky. Ursa Major means “the great bear” or “the larger bear”.
Following are the steps for locating the pole star:
First, locate the Ursa Major and locate the quadrilateral in it. Then, select the two stars on the far side of the quadrilateral.
Join these stars with a line and extend this imaginary line towards the top of the spoon. A faint star which meets this line is the pole star.
