Answer:

Winter

Step-by-step explanation:

When the Northern Hemisphere is tilted toward the sun, latitudes between the equator and 90°N (the North Pole) are experiencing summer. At the same time, the Southern Hemisphere is tilted away from the sun and experiencing winter. You are welcome, it is because it is positioned close to the line of Earth's axis projected into space. As such, it is the only bright star whose position relative to a rotating Earth does not change.
