God dropped his giant paintbrush somewhere and doesn't really have time to look. He thinks it may be behind the couch.
Technically, constellations are in the sky - not in Missouri, however, if you live in Missouri you can see the same constellations most Americans, Asians & Europeans are able to see.
because you can alny see the sun in the mornning
Great question - you would see the same constellations in the sky on a Winter day that you would see in the sky on a Summer night. And there are too many to mention here - almost 40+ constellations.
There is an imaginary band in the sky called the Plane of the Ecliptic. The planets we can see from earth, never wander above or below that band of sky - so the planets are always in one of the other of the constellations that lie in that band. We call those particular 12 (or 13) constellations the "constellations of the Zodiac".
As we orbit the sun certain constellations are actually in the sky during the day. It is then too bright to see them. If you put a lamp in the middle of a room and stared at it, it would be difficult to see what is behind it, but if you turn around the things that are behind you are easy to see. If you then go to the other side of the lamp, now the things that were easy to see are hard to see because the lamp is in front of them and the things that you couldn't see originally you can see very easily. That is how it is with different constellations as we go around the sun. At different times of year you can see different constellations. Whatever time of year it is, at that time every year, the same constellations are visible.
in the night sky
you see them by connecting stars together in the nightime sky. This sky called space

You see different constellation because the constellations stay in place, but Earth moves so every season you are able to see different constellations.
I can see two Moons in my neighbor's window.

This is due to Earth traveling around the Sun... it takes a year for this to happen. Which is why you see the same constellations in the sky the same time every year.

As long as people have been on Earth, looking up at the night sky, constellations have been there. Ancient people began to see patterns of stars in the sky and gave them names and these have become the constellations.
Yes. All the stars you see in the sky are in the Milky Way.
