The Story of Dhruva Tara : How Dhruva Became the Pole Star
Episode description
The North Star, aka the Polaris, has become a boon to many travellers in sea as well as on land to find directions in the night. One can easily spot the North Star in the sky, and then go ahead. Fun fact: North Star would be directly over your head if you were at the North Pole!
Like every other star, it also has cycles of getting bright and dim, but since the past few decades, it has been getting brighter and brighter. The reason why the Polaris is so important is because the Earth’s axis is directly pointed towards it.
It would not be surprising for many people when the word Polaris would be linked to the word Dhruva Tara, named after a small boy who shook the world to achieve recognition and respect by sacrificing his comforts! Let's revive this old story of the Dhruva Tara from our childhood times and understand how it all happened! Indeed, he is up above the world so high, and he is the diamond in the sky!
