Yes we do, we all see the same star every night. But if you are in a certain spot you can see the constellations. Not all can see the constellations. If you can you are very lucky.

Do you see the same constellations every day?
No - as Earth goes around the sun, we see different parts of space and different patterns of stars as they come into view. Different constellations are visible during different times of the year.
Are constellations always in the same part of the sky?
No - as Earth rotates the stars and constellations seem to move. Also, as Earth orbits the sun over the course of a year, the stars we see at night in the winter are different than the stars we see at night in the summer. Same with Spring and Fall.
Can you see the same constellations from another planet?
From all the planets in the solar system one can see the same constellations, because the distances to the stars are so great.
Why do Constellations seem to move in the sky each night because?
Because the stars do not move, but on the other hand, the Earth does. Therefore, sometimes you will not see the same constellations in the same place every night.
Do people from other cultures on Earth see the same stars constellations and asterisms that you see?
yes the see the same thing

Are the stars different in the northern hemisphere then the southern hemisphere?
The constellations are different due to the fact that you're looking completely different parts of the sky. However, some constellations which are directly above the Earth's equatorial regions remain the same.

Can you explain a constellation?
Some stars form familiar patterns in the night sky. The pattern may resemble a human, an animal or another object. Such a configuration of stars is called a constellation. Astronomers have identified 88 constellations. These constellations have been given Latin names. This is because the same configuration of stars might be given different names by people from different places. Some constellations were named after people. Examples of these are Orion (the mythical hunter), Cassiopeia, Andromeda and Perseus. Constellations named after animals include Pegasus, Ursa Major and Ursa Minor. Some constellations were named after objects. Telescopium was named after the telescope and Microscopium after the microscope. Some well-known configurations of stars are not constellations but only a part of constellations. For example, Big Dipper is part of the constellation Ursa Major, while Little Dipper is part of the constellation Ursa Minor.
Why do Constellations seem to move in the sky each night because?
Because the stars do not move, but on the other hand, the Earth does. Therefore, sometimes you will not see the same constellations in the same place every night.
Do people from other cultures on Earth see the same stars constellations and asterisms that you see?
yes the see the same thing
Are stars in the constellation physically close to each other?
No, they are not. They are in lines of sight which are close to each other and they are all so far away that they do not appear to move very much relative to one another. But in most constellations some stars are likely to by hundreds, if not millions, of times as far away than the nearest stars.
Why can't we see every constellation all year long?
You cannot see the same constellations or various constellations due to the rotation of the Earth and your position on it. So, someone in China won't be seeing the same stars you will tonight, but you won't be seeing the stars you looked at tonight a week from now.
Compare the constellations you could observe on July 21 and January 21 at 900 PM Tell what you conclude about observing stars in different seasons?
If I go out and look at the same time of night, then almost all of the constellations I see in January are completely different from the ones I see in July. Even the ones that are the same, up there near the North Star, are tipped around in completely different positions. From this experience, I conclude that if you go out and look at the same time of night every time, then most of the constellations you can see, and the position of the ones up there near the North Star, are different in different seasons.
Stars in a constellation are about the same age?
No. Constellations are just patterns of stars as seen from Earth. In reality they are all different distances from us and have no connection to each other. They are all kinds of different stars in terms of size, type, heat, distance and of course age. Written By: Helpful_hinamoriAmu One day i will tell you ,my real name
Would constellations appear different if you traveled to the nearest star?
yes constellations are relative in comparison with where you are located in the universe. depending on where you travel some constellations may stay the same while other will drastically look different.
