WHAT DOES CIRCUMPOLAR MEAN IN SPANISH?

Circumpolar star

Estrella circumpolar

A circumpolar star is a star that, seen from a latitude given on Earth, never sets, ie never disappears under the horizon due to its proximity to one of the celestial poles. The circumpolar stars are therefore visible from this place all night long, every night of the year and would always be visible during the day also if it were not for the effect of the Sun's glow. For an observer located at + 40 ° Latitude are circumpolar all stars that are less than 40º from the north pole; Similarly are circumpolar the stars between -40º and the south pole for an observer at -40º of latitude. All circumpolar stars are within a circumpolar circle. This was, in fact, the original meaning of the name of the Arctic Circle, before having the current geographical meaning. This means "Circle of the Bears", by the constellations Osa Major and Little Bear, from the Greek ρκτικός, "near the Osa", and this one of άρκτος "bear".

Una estrella circumpolar es una estrella que, vista desde una latitud dada en la Tierra, nunca se pone, es decir, nunca desaparece bajo el horizonte debido a su proximidad a uno de los polos celestes. Las estrellas circumpolares son, por lo tanto, visibles desde dicho lugar durante toda la noche, todas las noches del año y serían siempre visibles durante el día también si no fuera por el efecto del resplandor del Sol. Para un observador situado a +40º de latitud son circumpolares todas las estrellas que disten menos de 40º del polo norte; similarmente son circumpolares las estrellas entre -40º y el polo sur para un observador a -40º de latitud. Todas las estrellas circumpolares están dentro de un círculo circumpolar. Este fue, de hecho, el significado original del nombre del Círculo Polar Ártico, antes de tener el significado geográfico actual. Este significa «Círculo de los Osos», por las constelaciones Osa Mayor y Osa Menor, a partir del griego ρκτικός, «cerca de la Osa», y este de άρκτος «oso».
