Yes - slightly - but the changes only become noticeable as the weeks and months go by... In addition to Earth spinning once every 24 hours on it's axis, it also travels a wide path around the sun (our Orbit). As it does this and turns away from the sun (night) we see different patterns of stars as we make our way around the sun. It takes a whole year to get around the sun. Half a year puts us on the other side of the sun. Three months and we go a quarter way around the sun - this is why it takes a few months to notice the constellations change from one part of the sky to the other.
Only if you look at it at the same time every night. If you look at it 4 minutes earlier each night, then it doesn't change position at all.
A pattern of stars in the night sky is commonly referred to as a constellation. Each constellation has a unique shape and name.
Orion is not a physical object, but a constellation in the night sky that was named after Orion, a hunter in Greek mythology. The stars that form the pattern we see as "Orion" are located at different distances from Earth and have no physical connection to each other. The constellation appears the way it does due to our perspective from Earth.
The shape of a constellation appears not to change because the stars within the constellation are extremely far away from Earth, so their positions relative to each other appear fixed. Even though the stars are moving through space, the vast distances involved make their movements imperceptible to us on Earth within a human lifetime.
There are 88 constellation on our night sky. ================================ I have 88 of them as well ... one for each key on my piano.
waning
that is a waning moon.
You can tell if the moon is waxing or waning by looking at its shape. When the moon is waxing, it appears to be getting bigger each night. When the moon is waning, it appears to be getting smaller each night.
The biggest notable change is that they appear to move across the sky. This is of course due to Earth's rotation, and not the constellation moving. Standing looking at a constellation, you will not notice it move. You would need something to relate it to, like something on the horizon. If you look very carefully, you will see movement. Over the course of a night, it will appear to move in an arc shape, rising and then setting. If you regularly viewed a constellation across a few days or weeks, you would also notice that the time they rise is different and the time they are visible at a certain point in the sky is different. You will not notice any change in the stars in relation to each other within a constellation. Even during a lifetime, never mind one night, a particular constellation will look the same to you, as the changes would be so slight. If the moon is visible near a constellation, you would notice some movement over the course of a night in relation to stars in the constellation, and certainly over the course of a few nights. If there is a planet near them, you will notice some movement, but not near as much as the moon. The nearer planets, like Venus and Mars are more noticeable in their changes compared to other planets.

A constellation is a group of stars that form a recognizable pattern when viewed from Earth. These patterns were named and recognized by ancient civilizations to help navigate the night sky and tell stories. Each constellation has its own unique shape and significance.
