North Star (7)

I believe the answer is:

polaris

'north star' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for polaris that I've seen before include "Star useful for navigation" , "one belonging in the heavens" , "weapon sailors unleash" , "North Star - missile" , "Star near the N pole of the heavens" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, The Times, The Sun and the Evening Standard.
