If I go out and look at the same time of night, then almost all of the constellations I see in January are completely different from the ones I see in July. Even the ones that are the same, up there near the North Star, are tipped around in completely different positions. From this experience, I conclude that if you go out and look at the same time of night every time, then most of the constellations you can see, and the position of the ones up there near the North Star, are different in different seasons.


Do all constellations have stories?

Most of the myths can be found in Greek mythology. This gives the star constellations an interesting name and a good story to remember. Not all of the constellations will have a myth or story behind them but most do. You will want to look at the different ones that you find online and see which ones have stories and which don't. Just remember that constellations are not real but are instead used as a way to tell the stars in the night sky apart. So don't take the stories too seriously because they are just an easy way to remember the different star constellations. So have fun with this and learn what you can about each of the constellations now.
