If the earth tilts 23° during its rotation, how come the north star don't ever move?

Because the Earth isn't a globe, user. Most people don't know that it's actually a dodecahedron multiverse, each plane having a different master species. We have to break through to the others to get their resources. One universe is ruled by cervals. The coffee is amazing. We must enslave the cervals and force them to eat coffee and poop it out again for our consumption.

Read some astronomy books or quora at least
Also, in the future north star gonna change. North star is just a title bestowed to a star

According to (((science))) the Earth sits at 23.4 degrees "off perpendicular" Which is just a sneaky Jewish way to say 66.6 degrees.

Ok looking at their image just makes me even more confused on why Polaris is stationary in the sky.

Space is really fucking big and perspective is a thing

>orange line shows rotation axis
>when standing on earth the orange line basically points right at polaris
>everything looks like they are rotating around polaris
what is so hard to understand
Jordan Hernandez
You see that orange line? Polaris is kinda near it. And the distance is so great that Earth girth is inconsequential
Juan Young
Distance betwean polaris and earth I mean
Oliver Martin
I can't tell if you are trolling, stupid or just want an honest answer.
The 23* tilt is constant. It's always tilted the same amount in the same direction. Polaris is close to the alignment of the tilted pole so it looks like it's in the same spot.

>If the earth tilts 23° during its rotation
maybe this is your problem. It's not that the Earth is wobbling 23 degrees over the course of a day. It's "tilt" is 23 degrees with respect to its orbital plane around the sun. So this angle is always the same as it rotates each day, so the north pole is always pointing roughly at polaris

Also 90.0-23.4=66.6

holy fuck mutt moment.
my sides are currently perpendicular to the ceiling

And the earth's orbital speed is 66,616 mph

IK so why not base the angle off the sun

Answer to Why is Polaris, the North Star, always above (or near) the North Pole? If Earth is tilted, Polaris' path should be in winter 23 degrees away from its path in summer, or not? by D. Charles Pyle quora.com

Because the earth doesn’t spin parallel with its rotation around the sun. That is what Neptune does. It is the only planet to do so. So it’s purely by convention and neither approach is wrong.
Ryan Parker
Because everything you've been told is a lie
Wyatt Reed
Tangent would have been a more choice word instead of parallel.
Josiah Barnes
Neptune rotates perpendicularly to it's orbit around the sun.
