The following is a true statement  for people in the Northern Hemisphere is Polaris does not rise nor set.

What is the constellation of Polaris?

The fame of Polaris, also called the Polar Star or North Star, is not for nothing. It is the brightest star in the constellation Ursa Minor, and over the centuries it has been used to guide navigators - and more recently as a kind of cosmic beacon to measure distances across the universe.

This is because this star is currently located very close to the Earth rotation axis. That is why when observing the sky in the north direction, being in the northern hemisphere, Polaris will seem immobile in the middle of the rest of the stars.
