The Big Dipper can typically be seen in the northern sky and is circumpolar, meaning it doesn't dip below the horizon for observers in the Northern Hemisphere. However, in the Southern Hemisphere, the Big Dipper is not visible from most locations as it remains closer to the northern celestial pole.

Why can you not see the big dipper in Texas?

If you're anywhere south of about 35 degrees north latitude, then at least part of the Big Dipper rises and sets; that is, there are some parts of some nights when not all of its stars are visible. If you're farther south than about 40 degrees south latitude, then none of the stars in the Big Dipper is ever visible to you.

Where is the little dipper in the sky?

The little dipper is in our Milky Way Galaxy, actually not all that far from us. It is above the big dipper, so that it appears to be pouring into the big dipper. If you can see the north star, that is the tail (or end of the handle) of the little dipper. The middle stars of the little dipper are somewhat faint, but the two outside stars of the top and bottom of the little dipper pan are about as bright as the north star.
