Constellations appear brighter largely due to the relative brightness of their stars and their arrangement in the night sky. The stars within constellations are often some of the closest and most luminous stars visible from Earth, making them stand out. Additionally, our perception of brightness is influenced by the contrast of these stars against the darker background of the sky. Atmospheric conditions and light pollution can also affect how bright constellations seem.
What else can I help you with?
Why can you not see the constellations in daylight hours?
