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.

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