No. One of the better known constellations in the northern hemisphere is the big dipper. People in the Southern Hemisphere can't see this. In the south the well known constellation is the southern cross, and you can't see this in the northern hemisphere.
Rome, the capital of Italy, is in the northern hemisphere. You cannot see the Southern Lights from the northern hemisphere.
People do talk about them. You probably live in the northern hemisphere, so the Northern Lights are more relevant there. In the southern hemisphere, people would be talking about the Southern Lights, as that is what they might be able to see. Where they are, they would not be talking about the Northern Lights.
Gravity holds them to the Earth. They feel no different than those standing in Northern areas.
Yes. The stars are the same in both hemispheres. Remember that people used to sail around the world just by looking at the stars. That is because the stars are the same.
The constellation Ursa Minor, the little bear, contains the star Polaris which, in modern times appears to remain stationary above the North Pole. This can help people in the Northern hemisphere locate the northward direction.There are other constellations which rise and set at different times of the night in different seasons. This information can be ueful in telling the time.
People live in both the Northern and Southern Hemisphere.
northern hemisphere people
There are more people living in the northern hemisphere compared to the southern hemisphere. This is because the majority of the world's population is concentrated in countries located in the northern half of the globe.
Some of them, yes. Constellations along the Zodiac can be seen from either hemisphere, but constellations well away from the celesial equator cannot be seen very far in the other hemisphere. For example, Ursa Major is not visible in Australia, and the Southern Cross is not visible in Europe or North America. Most of the "official" constellations were named by northern hemisphere astronomers, or European navigators sailing in southern waters. Look at how many southern hemisphere constellations have a nautical theme; the Telescope, the Octant, the Quadrant. Even Cetus, the Whale, was named by sailors, not people who LIVED there.
Because it is winter in the Southern Hemisphere.
This is true if you live in the northern hemisphere. You can't see the southern stars because the bulk of the Earth is in the way. Different constellations are visible in each hemisphere, a constellation in the northern sky can be difficult or impossible to see from the southern hemisphere of the Earth, and vice versa. The reason is that the axis of the Earth's rotation is fairly constant. In its annual journey around the Sun it generally points in the same direction; people in the northern hemisphere will generally see the same constellations year round, and the same in the southern hemisphere. Those living near the equator see some of both. The tilt of the Earth's axis also makes some constellations somewhat seasonal, because of a slight change of the viewer's angle to the night sky.
Rome, the capital of Italy, is in the northern hemisphere. You cannot see the Southern Lights from the northern hemisphere.
In the southern hemisphere it is winter when in the northern hemisphere it is summer.
The first constellations were, we believe, invented by the ancient Babylonians and Sumerians, and perhaps the Phoenicians. These were to give people a way to refer to the stars and constellations, and provided a heavenly anchor for their stories. Most of the northern hemisphere constellation names that we use today were invented, or adapted, by the ancient Greeks and Romans. The southern hemisphere constellations were largely named by sailors and mariners. It's likely that the people who lived in these southern lands had names of their own for the constellations and stars, but few of those are still in use.
More people live in the northern hemisphere than in the southern hemisphere. This is because the majority of Earth's landmass is in the northern hemisphere, which includes populous countries like China, India, the United States, and Russia.
People do talk about them. You probably live in the northern hemisphere, so the Northern Lights are more relevant there. In the southern hemisphere, people would be talking about the Southern Lights, as that is what they might be able to see. Where they are, they would not be talking about the Northern Lights.
