What about an artificial star for the southern hemisphere?
We all know Polaris makes it easy for those in the northern hemisphere but what about a satellite that sits over the south celestial pole that is solar powered and acts like a large beacon?
How high would it have to be and how feasible would it be?
It would make polar alignment for the south a doddle.
If we all put in a few hundred to kick it off and then have sponsors or some benevolent person or organisation to launch it.
Imagine that a real artificial star
