The sun's light makes the stars fade from view... since constellations are made up from patterns of stars, the answer is no - BUT they're still there in the sky - we just can't see them. In fact - the stars that are in the sky during the day, are the ones we see at night 6 months later.

How do you see different constellations in the sky at different times of the year?

The relative position (direction, actually) of a constellation and the Sun changes, due to Earth's orbit around the Sun. Thus, at one moment the Sun might be in a certain constellation; half a year later, the Sun will be in a constellation opposite in the sky.


Is the constellation lit by the sun?

No. Each star in a constellation is a separate 'sun' all its own.


What constellation does earth belong to?

When is Capricorn seen?

No. For the Sun to be "in" one of the constellations means that the constellation is BEHIND the Sun, and so invisible. Any constellation is, on average, visible for 9 months of the year, with the 3 months of non-visibility being centered on that constellation.

Why can't you see the constellation Gemini during the summer?

The earth is on the east side of the sun (summer) and when that is so, the constellation Gemini is on the west side of the sun. The sun is blocking the view of the constellation Gemini.


What time of the year can you see your zodiac constellation?

You can see your zodiac constellation at any time of year. When the Earth moves, the stars will align in such a way as to reflect the zodiac paradigm. Thus, your sign is born. It also depends on whenever your birthdate is. Mine is in April, so I sometimes see Taurus at that time.Comment: That seems unlikely because there are times of the year when you can't see your zodiac constellation. That's simply because the Sun is "in" theconstellation around your birthday. That means the Sun appears where the constellation is in the sky and the stars in it aren't visible, because it's daytime.


Is the sun a constellation?

No. A constellation is a group of stars that appear to be in a pattern as seen from Earth. The sun is just one star.


Why cant you see the Orion constellation in the summer?

The Orion constellation is more visible during the winter months in the Northern Hemisphere because it is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun, making it rise in the east in the evening. During the summer, Orion is behind the Sun in the sky, making it impossible to see at night.
