Polaris is closest to which other star in the constellation ursa minor?

Polaris is a quintuple star. The Polaris star we can see is a six solar mass F7 bright giant. In a close orbit to it there is a dwarf star, so that is your answer.Polaris is closest to which other star in the constellation ursa minor?SAO 270, a 9.8 mag star is 0d12'23" from Polaris. There are thousands of other, dimmer stars that may be nearer, but I would have to download the Hubble Guide Star Catalog or the US Naval Observatory CD-ROM catalog, or any of the more complex ones than the Hipparchos-Tycho catalog that is the default one.
