Southern pole stars

Southern pole stars refer to stars that are located near the South Celestial Pole, which is the point in the sky directly above the Earth's South Pole. Unlike the North Celestial Pole, which is closely aligned with Polaris (the North Star), the South Celestial Pole does not have a bright star that is directly associated with it. However, there are several stars that are relatively close to the South Celestial Pole and serve as useful reference points for navigation or for locating the pole itself.
