The Sun is bigger than some stars and smaller than others. It is brighter than some stars and dimmer than others. Relative to the Earth it is much closer than all other stars.
This is an illusion due to the vast distances between the stars and the Earth's spin. The stars themselves are moving quite quickly, the Earth spinning on it's axis only adds to this cosmic slight of hand by turning under them. The movement of the stars is over vast distances greater than you can imagine. Always remember, most of the movement observed is the Earth moving not the stars. Our eyes simply cannot detect it over the vast light years.
It is not different, just closer to the Earth.
Stars appear different from the sun because the sun is closer to the earth and the other stars are further away from the earth so that's why the appear differently when you look at them in the sky!!!!!
The earth is rotating around the sun. Therefore the position of other stars (although millions of light years away) are in different orientation to that of the earth.
Because it is the closest star to the earth and it can be seen so easily.

It does not. The sun is moving both relative to the earth and to other stars.
Where are the stars in a constellation located relative to each other
It is not different, just closer to the Earth.
Different stars appear in the night sky during different seasons because Earth's orbit around the sun causes us to see different portions of the sky at different times of the year. As the Earth moves, our perspective changes, making certain stars visible or hidden based on their position relative to us. This phenomenon is why we see different constellations and stars during different seasons.

24 hours. Relative to the stars (the "real rotation"), it is about 23h56m.24 hours. Relative to the stars (the "real rotation"), it is about 23h56m.24 hours. Relative to the stars (the "real rotation"), it is about 23h56m.24 hours. Relative to the stars (the "real rotation"), it is about 23h56m.
Geologists study the earth, its composition the forces working on it. They know the earth is an active system by observing earthquakes and the slow creep of the tectonic plates Astronomers and astrophysicists study the stars and planets and their relative motions. They know the Earth moves by studying the relative positions of the other planets against the Earth and each other and the against the more distant stars.
Each star in Scorpius is a different distance from the other stars.
Constellations appear to be in different places at different times due to the Earth's rotation on its axis. As the Earth rotates, the position of the observer relative to the stars changes, causing different constellations to become visible. This is why different constellations can be seen in the night sky at different times and in different locations on Earth.
Constellations are patterns of stars that are viewed from Earth. The stars in constellations are at varying distances from us and are not physically related to each other in space. They appear to form shapes due to our perspective from Earth.
Astrometry: The study of the movement of the stars relative to the position of the Earth to determine precise measurements and distances from the Earth to those stars.
