Somewhere along the equator...
Yes - EVERYTHING in the sky rises and sets, because Earth rotates on it's axis.
All of them are. The constellations were all invented by human beings, on Earth. None were invented that can't be seen from Earth.
The constellations of the zodiac fall on the plane of the ecliptic (the plane in which the Earth orbits the Sun) and all the Sun's planets orbit also in the plane of the ecliptic. This means that ALL the planets eventually move through ALL the zodiacal constellations (as seen from Earth). It also therefore follows that the planets are never seen in the non zodiacal constellations.
It is because of the rotation and revolution of the Earth's axis.The Earth goes to one side of its orbit this causes the other constellations to be blocked by the sun. The change in location makes other constellations out of sight. The Earth goes away from these constellations that's why we can't see them.
All of them. Well, that's not entirely accurate. At the Equator, EVERY constellation seems to rise in the East and set in the west. At the mid-latitudes, there are some constellations that are "circum-polar"; they never actually rise, and never actually set. In most of the United States, for example, the constellations of Ursa Major and Cassiopeia never rise; they become visible in the sky when the Sun sets, and they disappear into the lightening sky when the Sun rises. In the Arctic or Antarctic regions, MOST stars and constellations are circum-polar. But all the constellations that rise, rise in the East. And if they set at all, they set in the west. And I need ANOTHER correction - because none of the stars move enough in a lifetime for them to change their positions in the sky. It's the Earth itself that does the spinning, and the rising and setting that we THINK we see is an effect of us living on a globe that's spinning like a carousel.

All stars (and constellations) move from east to west, due to Earth's rotation (which is from west to east).All stars (and constellations) move from east to west, due to Earth's rotation (which is from west to east).All stars (and constellations) move from east to west, due to Earth's rotation (which is from west to east).All stars (and constellations) move from east to west, due to Earth's rotation (which is from west to east).
As earth orbits the sun, different constellations come into view while others disappear. Circumpolar constellations are visible all year long, other constellations are not.
constellation does not rotate at all, but the Earth does

Because of Earth's rotation.
There is no distance from earth, as all the stars are at different distances!:))
No I can't, because I live on Earth and there's no place on Earth where that's possible.
The Earth is a sphere. An observer looking up can only see the stars on their side of the planet. As the Earth rotates, it exposes the observer to the other stars visible to their hemisphere. Simply put, the earth gets in the way. If the earth were to disappear and you were floating in space, you could freely look around at the celestial sphere and observe the constellations. The number of constellations visible would be limited only by the range of your vision, which still would be insufficient to see in every direction simultaneously.
