The Big and Little Dippers can be seen usually every night, although are much brighter in the Winter.
Constellations can be seen throughout the year, but different constellations are visible during different seasons. For example, during summer in the Northern Hemisphere, constellations like Scorpius and Cygnus are prominent in the night sky, while in winter, Orion and Taurus are more visible.
Some of the constellations visible all year long from the northern hemisphere include Ursa Major (containing the Big Dipper), Ursa Minor (containing the Little Dipper with Polaris, the North Star), and Cassiopeia. In the southern hemisphere, constellations like Centaurus and Crux (Southern Cross) remain visible throughout the year.
The circumpolar constellations are visible throughout the year from all latitudes on Earth. Examples include Ursa Major, Ursa Minor, Cassiopeia, and Draco. These constellations never set below the horizon, making them visible in both northern and southern hemispheres.
In Bellingham, WA, the circumpolar constellations, such as Ursa Major (containing the Big Dipper) and Cassiopeia, are visible throughout the year. These constellations never dip below the horizon due to Bellingham's northern latitude. Additionally, some zodiac constellations, like Taurus and Orion, are also visible year-round from this location. This is due to their position along the ecliptic, the apparent path of the Sun in the sky.
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.

These are called circumpolar constellations.

The constellations near the plane of the ecliptic (the zodiacal constellations) are only visible at certain times of the year. The constellations towards the poles (N and S) are visible at all times of the year from their respective hemispheres. In the South, the Southern Cross would be one example and in the North the Great Bear (or plough) would be another.
The relative positions of the constellations do change throughout the year, but over a human lifetime, the changes are minimal. The constellations that are visible at night shift according to Earth's orbit around the Sun, creating the illusion of fixed positions.
Constellations are visible at different times of the year because the Earth orbits around the Sun, causing the night sky to change as different parts of the sky become visible seasonally. This movement of the Earth creates the appearance of shifting constellations throughout the year.
It is because of the rotation and revolution of the Earth's axis.The Earth goes to one side of its orbit this causes the other constellations to be blocked by the sun. The change in location makes other constellations out of sight. The Earth goes away from these constellations that's why we can't see them.
In Missouri, some prominent constellations that can be seen include Orion, Ursa Major (containing the Big Dipper), and Cassiopeia. These constellations are visible throughout the year and are easily recognizable in the night sky.
Circumpolar constellations are visible all year long, depending on where you are viewing them from. At the north pole, or the south pole, some constellations are visible year-round, these are the circumpolar constellations. On the equator, there are no circumpolar constellations because of the earths rotation, that is why circumpolar constellations are at the "poles". Some of the circumpolar constellations can also be viewed from other parts of the same hemisphere, such as the big dipper and the little dipper, although they are circumpolar, they are also seen in other parts of the northern hemisphere. Circumpolar constellations in the northern hemisphere, will never be seen at the south pole, and vice versa. I hope this helped.
