It appears in both hemispheres but at different times of the year and has many names. Matariki is an open star cluster and also known as:
Pleiades
Seven Sisters
Messier object 45
It has many many other names from peoples all around the world. Matariki is the maori name given in Aotearoa New Zealand.
Leo Minor is a constellation that is visible in the Northern Hemisphere. It can be seen from latitudes between +90° and -40°.
Yes, objects moving in the Southern Hemisphere appear to curve to the left due to the Coriolis effect, which is a result of the Earth's rotation. This effect causes moving objects to be deflected to the left in the Southern Hemisphere and to the right in the Northern Hemisphere. Consequently, if you observe an object moving in the Southern Hemisphere, it will seem to curve to the left relative to the direction of motion.
In the southern hemisphere, the moon appears differently from the northern hemisphere due to the different perspective caused by being in the opposite part of the Earth. Just like how you might see a tree from one angle and then it looks different from another, the moon may seem to tilt or stand differently in the sky when viewed from the southern hemisphere compared to the northern hemisphere. It's fascinating how our beautiful moon can branch out its different personalities depending on where we are in the world.
Satellite TV dishes in the Northern Hemisphere are typically pointed south because the satellites that provide the TV signals are positioned over the equator. In the Southern Hemisphere, the dishes are pointed north for the same reason, as the satellites are still positioned over the equator but appear to be in the northern part of the sky from that perspective.
Orion is a prominent constellation that is visible in the night sky during the winter months in the northern hemisphere, typically from late October through March. However, its visibility can vary depending on your location and local weather conditions.

Leo Minor is a constellation that is visible in the Northern Hemisphere. It can be seen from latitudes between +90° and -40°.
In the Northern Hemisphere, the Sun apparently rises in the east and sets in the west. In the Southern Hemisphere, it is the other way around. The Sun rises in the west and sets in the east. Note that the Sun does not actually move, it is Earth that makes it appear to move.
No, the sun will appear directly overhead along the Tropic of Capricorn in the Southern Hemisphere.
Yes, objects moving in the Southern Hemisphere appear to curve to the left due to the Coriolis effect, which is a result of the Earth's rotation. This effect causes moving objects to be deflected to the left in the Southern Hemisphere and to the right in the Northern Hemisphere. Consequently, if you observe an object moving in the Southern Hemisphere, it will seem to curve to the left relative to the direction of motion.
In the Southern Hemisphere, winds blowing from the north will appear to move east. This is due to the Coriolis Effect.

It depends where you are. It is possible to sit on a beach facing east and watch the sun rise over the sea in the northern and southern hemispheres. Similarly if you sit on a beach on the west coast of anywhere the sun will rise over the land and set into the sea.
Satellite TV dishes in the Northern Hemisphere are typically pointed south because the satellites that provide the TV signals are positioned over the equator. In the Southern Hemisphere, the dishes are pointed north for the same reason, as the satellites are still positioned over the equator but appear to be in the northern part of the sky from that perspective.
In the southern hemisphere, stars appear to move from east to west in a clockwise direction due to the Earth's rotation. Polaris, the North Star, is not visible in the southern hemisphere. The Southern Cross and the constellation Crux are prominent in the southern sky and can be used for navigation.
Tornadoes happen in both hemispheres.
