Does polyester material shrink?

I have a space heater in my room and I accidently had my new shirt that is made out of 100% polyester in front of my space heater. It may have been in front of the space heater for about an hour. Do you think it shrunk my shirt at all? I have read that polyester won't even shrink in the dryer is that true?

    True. Don't keep your laundry that close to a space heater, you'll burn the house down.
