Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Circumpolar stars are those that, due to their proximity to one of the celestial poles, remain perpetually above the horizon for any given observer, regardless of the observer's latitude. This means they do not rise or set but are always visible in the sky, day or night, assuming clear conditions and darkness.
