What is the distance in light years of Cenaturus constellation from earth?
A constellation is basically a general direction in space. It doesn't have a definite distance. Different stars in a constellation are at different distances. The closest star from Earth happens to be in the Centaurus constellation, at a distance of about 4.2 light-years. But please note that other stars in the same constellation are much, much farther from us.A constellation is basically a general direction in space. It doesn't have a definite distance.

Is there changes in costellations in winter and summer?
No. Each constellation keeps the same apparent 'shape', each of its stars maintains the same apparent brightness, and it appears in the same part of the sky. It simply keeps a different schedule at different times of the year, rising and setting at different hours in different months. Also, there may be a small part of the year when the sun is also up during the same hours that the constellation is up, and it's not visible at all for that reason.
Are all the stars in constellation the same distance away fromm us?
Any constellation is a group of stars that appear to form some kind of pattern, but have no connection with each other. They all happen to be in roughly the same direction from us, but they're all at different distances. So there's no such thing as a constellation's distance from us.
