In the night sky, in which constellation will you find Polaris, the North Star?

 

Send your answers to george@bwsailing.com. A winner will be selected randomly from the correct answers.

 

Many thanks for everyone who sent in answers to last week’s Mindbender on the Maori name for New Zealand. The winner this week is Karen Krautz who emailed, “Aotearoa translates to “Land of the Long While Cloud.””
