Is scorpius visible in the northern or southern hemishpere?
The constellation Scorpius is visible in both hemispheres, depending on your latitude. According to EarthSky.org, early to mid July in either the Northern or Southern Hemisphere is the best time to view Scorpius. EarthSky.org also says, "As seen from mid-northern latitudes, such as the central U.S., Scorpius never climbs high in the sky, but rather skitters along the horizon, so you need an unobstructed view southward to see this constellation in its entirety." Space.com says, "In the Northern Hemisphere, Scorpius lies close to the southern horizon; in the Southern Hemisphere, it lies high in the sky near the center of the Milky Way."
