What month is Argentina in when the US is in June?
For societies that measure the passage of a year in the same system of months, the months occur at the same times worldwide. But the seasons are opposite for places in the northern hemisphere (such as the U.S.) and places in the southern hemisphere (such as Argentina). So although June in the U.S. is June in Argentina, June is summer in the U.S. and winter in Argentina. This is because the Earth's axis is tilted, so when the northern hemisphere is tilted toward the sun the southern is tilted away, and vice-versa.
Are the stars brighter in the southern hemisphere than the northern hemisphere?
For the most part there is less developed land in the Southern Hemisphere than in the Northern Hemisphere. That means that at night when you can see the stars there is less light pollution, and generally, I believe. less air pollution. Less air pollution means less tiny particles in the air. Particles tend to interfere with the passage of light, so you can't see stars that give off less light. At the same time "Light Pollution" makes the sky seem lighter providing poorer contrast and making weaker stars more difficult to see. In other words, stars are not brighter in the Southern Hemisphere, they're just easier to see.
