North Star and helping the Big Dipper!? Is there anyone who takes pictures of the North Star every night at different times? His disorder was, and I needed to draw the north star, then the Big Dipper to 21 hours and then at 12 hours for the class. I am not able to do because its very cloudy and I am using to try to find some pictures on the internet.
Do you have any links that might be useful?
Thank you!

I do not think you'll be very lucky to find someone who
an asterism photographs every night. Astronomers are trying to photograph
things that are in the constellations. Not themselves constellations.
In addition, a photo of the ladle a great night is exactly the same
as a photo taken that night. The stars do change
Yes, there is a great site for this.

Sign up, sign up (it's free and they do harass you - its ok ...)
once you put in your area, click on "map of the whole sky"
You can put any date and time you want - and see how the stars move across the sky.
And you can print them for use at night!
Check the website of NASA, I have not checked for it, but NASA is a very good bet.
Good luck!
find a map of the sky. Google Earth is capable of that.
However, it is best just to go outside.
