What is the uses of constlation?
Constellations are used for navigating. Since different constellations appear in different parts of the world at different times of the year, if you know the approximate time of the year you can figure out where you are by the constellations.
How do the stars locations change over time?
All the stars and the Sun are moving through space in different directions and at different speeds. Over long times (to a person) they change their positions in the sky and the constellations change.
Why do you see different constellations at different points of the year?
The sun is always in different places at different times.
What are some seasonal constellations?
Most constellations are seasonal, meaning they appear in the sky during reasonable evening hours only at certain times of the year. For example, Orion is a popular winter constellation. Only circumpolar constellations are not seasonal.
Do you see the same constellations every day?
No - as Earth goes around the sun, we see different parts of space and different patterns of stars as they come into view. Different constellations are visible during different times of the year.

What motion of earth makes it seem as if the stars and constellations are in different positions at different times of the year?
Earth orbiting the sun
Why do you see different constellation at different times?
Because the times differs from the constellations.
How does the earth's affect our view of the constellations in the night?
The Earth's rotation causes the constellations in the night sky to appear to move across the horizon. This rotation causes the constellations to rise and set at different times throughout the year, leading to different constellations being visible during different seasons. Additionally, the Earth's atmosphere can cause the stars to twinkle and appear less bright or crisp, depending on factors such as air pollution or atmospheric conditions.

When were constellations found by scientists?
They were all found at different times, there is no exact date
Do you see the same constellations every day?
No - as Earth goes around the sun, we see different parts of space and different patterns of stars as they come into view. Different constellations are visible during different times of the year.
Why you see different constellations at different times in the year?
because the world is in different places around the sun at different times of the year therefore you would see different constalations
Do you have see the same stars and constellations at different times of the year?
Yes we do, we all see the same star every night. But if you are in a certain spot you can see the constellations. Not all can see the constellations. If you can you are very lucky.
How many constellations can you find in the night star?
At different times of night and in different seasons of the year, I can find about 30 of them.
