because during the summer the northern hemisphere is tilted toward the sun and the Southern Hemisphere is tilted away. this tilt of our planet is about 21 degrees and shows us different views of the night sky as we tilt back a forth with the seasons. So in the winter you would see a lower portion of the sky and in the summer you are seeing a higher portion of the sky.

You will be able to see many of the same constellations (called circumpolar constellations since they are near the poles and can seen year round) but constellations closer to the horizon and closer to the equator will change
