Would the night sky you observe be the same if you were to do the observation in a year later?

Essentially yes. Some things will have moved, like the planets and the Moon. Jupiter is a good example, as it takes just under 12 years to orbit the sun, so it advances by one of the zodiac constellations each year. The Moon would be in a different position, if you can see it at all. Stars will also have moved, but by such a tiny amount at the distance we are from them, you would not notice, even in a lifetime, never mind one year. So apart from the moon and any planets that would be visible, the sky would look the same if you are observing on the same date from the same location. That in itself is one of the nice things, in that you know what you will see at any given time of the year from any given place.

Why is there day and night in Mars?
Mars rotates about it's axis, so if you were to stay at close to one point on mars for a martian day, then for half the day you would face the sun(day), then later on when mars had rotated round, the part of mars you were on would not be facing the sun(night).
Why was the discovery of the Chinese observation of a supernova in Taurus important?

How could you test if stars move at night and how often during the night would you observe?
-- look in the sky, at least twice at different times of the same night, and compare the positions of the objects you see -- if you observe closely and recall the appearance of objects in the sky in reasonable detail, the change should be obvious within a half-hour
Is observing at night better?
If you are an astronomer and your subject of observation is not Earth's sun, then yes observing at night is better.
How do you make an meaningful observation?
Meaning depends on context and audience. For instance, you could make the observation that President Obama is black but this would be a pointless observation since most people already know it. In fact the observation is so obvious the president used it as a joke on a late night TV channel.So for an observation to be meaningful it needs to be pertinent, relevant, timely, precise and accurate.If we are trying to launch a vehicle into space and you note that the acceleration constant for the earth's gravity had changed by 1percent. This would be startling, timely, and maybe even alarming. If it turned out that the measurement was not repeatable the observation would be not be meaningful. It would probably just be annoying.For the most part in science, the most meaningful observations are repeatable.
What are the tools scientist use observe objects in the night sky?

Why were there so many stars Friday night about and an hour later the night sky was back to normal?
Perhaps you had a clear sky. This may happen after a rain. It is also possible that the lights of the city went out - lots of lights make it difficult to observe the night sky. Or perhaps you went out of the city, to an area where the sky was clearer. In any case, I would not say that the sky was back to normal - it was back to abnormal.Perhaps you had a clear sky.
