I actually fact checked this and it's true.

I feel cheated that the north star is in fact 3 stars.

    I think it’s also worth mentioning that Polaris Aa, the youngest star in the triplet, is also the brightest by 3 orders of magnitude. Without Polaris Aa, we wouldn’t actually consider it as the North Star at all…so I think you are safe to continue using this as a fact.

    Go blow some people’s minds, everyone!
