What accounts for different stars being seen in the sky during different seasons of the year?
The thing that accounts for different stars being seen in the sky during different seasons of the year is the tilt of the Earth. This not only creates the seasons, it brings different stars into view at different times.
What are seasonal star positions?
It appears to the human eye that stars shift positions with the seasons. It is really the tilting of the earth's axis that makes it appear as if the stars have moved.
Why do stars appear to move across the sky during the night?
stars don't move across the sky, we orbit the sun, as you should know, and as we orbit the sun we see the stars as moving but in all actuality we are just changing position and seeing the stars at a different perspective
Why are stars yellow?
Some stars appear yellow because either they are yellow or the white color can appear different. The spectral types F and G (our sun), contain yellow stars. This is caused by their temperature.
Why cant you see the stars in the first picture a few months later?
the earth moves and different seasons determine which stars come out

Do you see different stars during different seasons of the year?
Yes.
Different stars can be seen during different what?
seasons, it can also vary with your latitude, basically where you are around the sun
Placements of constellations during seasons?
The different seasons correspond to different constellations. As Earth orbits the sun during the year, we look out at different parts of space and see different patterns of stars as they come into view.
Explain why stars appear to move across the sky each night why are some stars only visible doing certain seasons?
Stars appear to move across the sky each night because the earth is moving, but not the stars. Also some stars are only visible during certain seasons because as the earth rotates, they become visible.
Why do stars and the sun appear different?
Stars appear different from the sun because the sun is closer to the earth and the other stars are further away from the earth so that's why the appear differently when you look at them in the sky!!!!!
Why can some different stars be seen in different seasons?
Earth spins on its axis
What are seasonal star positions?
It appears to the human eye that stars shift positions with the seasons. It is really the tilting of the earth's axis that makes it appear as if the stars have moved.
How does the tilt of the axis cause us to see different constellations in different seasons?
No, but the fact that the Earth orbits the Sun does do that. Because of the way sunlight ins scattered through our atmosphere (and because the Sun is incredibly bright), we cannot see stars that appear near the Sun in the sky; the Sun has to go below the horizon for any stars to be visible. Stars that are near the Sun in the sky are not visible. So as the Earth goes around the Sun, a different set of stars appear to be "behind" the Sun, near it in the sky, each season.
Why are some stars only vivible during certain seasons?
the sun blocks our view.
What causes the stars in the sky to appear to be moving?
The Earth's rotation. The relation between the Earth (or a person on the Earth) and the position of the stars makes it appear that the stars are in a different position as the night progresses.
Why do stars appear to move across the sky during the night?
stars don't move across the sky, we orbit the sun, as you should know, and as we orbit the sun we see the stars as moving but in all actuality we are just changing position and seeing the stars at a different perspective
