      Do you mean before the star itself existed or before its position became the north star?

        Polaris is only up to about 70 million years old. So, technically it’s likely to be way younger than the rings of Saturn, but it’s still crazy to me to think that a star was just… not there until it showed up one day, and sharks were there well beforehand.

    And Taylor Swift, but not Liza Minelli (she is eternal)

  And dinosaurs existed for ~160 million years before grasses. runs to cross-reference all my illustrated childhood books’ dinosaur species extinction timelines and the presence of grass!!
