During the day, the Sun is out and brightens the sky. Since the Sun is so close to Earth (compared to the stars we see at night), the Sun's light overpowers the light coming from the distant stars. However, at night the Sun's light is not present to wash out the light from the stars, so the stars can finally be seen. The constellations that one sees at night arises from the groupings of various stars.
No. As we orbit the Sun different constellations become visible, but we can only see them when it is dark. Constellations are in the sky during daylight, but the Sun is so bright, we cannot see them. A few months after that, they start to be visible in the evenings and soon at night, by which time other constellations are in daylight and cannot be seen. You will see any constellation at the same time of year, every year. So the constellations you see in the night sky tonight are the same as the ones you will see on this date in any other year. The only thing that will differ is where the Moon and planets are.
Those constellations that lie in the plane in which Earth orbits the Sun (the ecliptic) are only visible in the night sky when Earth is on their side of the Sun.
As Earth orbits the sun - it takes one year to get around it - we see different parts of space and different patterns of stars, as Earth turns away from the sun every night. The constellations we see on a night in summer, are behind the Sun during the winter.
You can see the constellations in Rune Factory Frontier by looking up at the night sky during the evening hours. The constellations will appear overhead as you explore the towns or fields. You can also observe them from your farm at night.
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.
They aren't - you can't see them in the daytime... only night time.

We can only see half of the sky at one time. And in the morning or the evening,it's too bright to see stars.

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.
Constellations appear to move in the sky due to the Earth's rotation on its axis. As the Earth rotates, different constellations become visible at different times of the night. This motion is also why constellations appear to shift positions throughout the year.
Yes. All the stars you can see at night are in the Milky Way.
Not enough to notice. Each star has its own "proper motion", and some of the stars are clipping right along - but they are mostly so far away that you wouldn't notice the changes even over several lifetimes. One of the major exceptions is Barnard's Star, which is moving QUITE rapidly, and is close enough that the difference can be measured over the course of a few decades. But "night to night"? No. Anything that moves appreciably over the course of a few nights is within our solar system. Planets do; not only are the other planets moving, but the Earth is moving as well. About the only other thing that you'll notice moving from night to night would be a comet.
