What 3 constellations would you be able to see in June in Gilbert above the southern horizon?
I see 21 "Gilbert"s in 19 states in the US, including 2 in Ohio and 2 in Pennsylvania,
and several more in other countries.
All of the constellations of the zodiac can be seen from anywhere in the world outside
the polar regions, including Scorpius, Sagittarius, and Capricorn conveniently placed for
evening viewing in June.
If regular sleep is not an issue, then every constellation of the zodiac except Capricorn
should be visible somewhere above the horizon at sometime of the night in June.
If the questioner could specify his location with more precision, we could in turn put a
finer point on a custom list of constellations.

How can you tell the difference between summer and winter by the sun?
the sun is higher at midday in ther summer than it is in the winter
Are the stars different in the northern hemisphere then the southern hemisphere?
The constellations are different due to the fact that you're looking completely different parts of the sky. However, some constellations which are directly above the Earth's equatorial regions remain the same.
Why cannot see all constellations?
If you were on the Equator you would see all of them. Otherwise it depends where you live. I live in New Zealand at latitude 35° S. So I can't see any northern stars closer than 35° to the North Celestial Pole. If you live in the north at say 35°N, then you wouldn't see those stars which are closer than 35° to the South Celestial Pole.
Is Altitude defined as the distance in degrees of a star below the horizon?
Almost . . ."Altitude" is the apparent angle of the object above the horizon.
What constellation is always above dayton ohio's horizon?
There are several constellations that are above the horizon in Dayton year round. Among these are Ursa Major, Ursa Minor, Cancer and Virgo.
What is the difference between seasonal and circumpolar constellations?
Seasonal constellations are visible only at certain times of the year due to Earth's orbit around the Sun, while circumpolar constellations are visible year-round from a specific location near the poles due to their proximity to the celestial pole. Seasonal constellations rise and set, while circumpolar constellations appear to constantly circle the celestial pole without rising or setting.

What star group could you see at 1100 pm but not on 700 pm?
At 11:00 PM, you might be able to see constellations that have risen above the horizon, such as Orion, which typically becomes visible later in the evening during its season. In contrast, at 7:00 PM, these constellations may still be below the horizon or obscured by daylight. The visibility of stars and constellations changes throughout the night as the Earth rotates, revealing different parts of the sky.

Southern Cross is 23 degrees above horizon?
The Southern Cross is a famous star constellation in the southern hemisphere known for its distinctive cross shape. Being 23 degrees above the horizon means it is visible from locations between the latitudes of approximately 15 degrees south and 55 degrees south. This makes it a prominent feature in the night sky for observers in the southern hemisphere.
What is the altitude of Polaris in the southern hemisphere?
Polaris, also known as the North Star, is located almost directly above the North Pole, making it not visible from the Southern Hemisphere. Its altitude, or angular height above the horizon, corresponds to the observer's latitude in the Northern Hemisphere. Therefore, in the Southern Hemisphere, Polaris has an altitude of 0 degrees, meaning it is always below the horizon.
Circumpolar stars can be seen all night long during the entire year because they are?
Always above the horizon at your latitude. In the northern hemisphere this will be the northern horizon and the reverse for the southern hemisphere.
What latitude on earth is a celestial pole 45 above the horizon'?
At 45 degrees north latitude, the north celestial pole appears 45 degrees above the northern horizon. At 45 degrees south latitude, the south celestial pole appears 45 degrees above the southern horizon.
What is the layer above the A horizon?
top horizon
Do circumpolar constellations move out of sight during the year?
No. "Circumpolar" means they remain above the horizon. The only way for that to change is if you travel somewhere else (further south, if you live north of the equator).
Where in the sky would a star with an azimuth of 180 degrees and an altitude of 20 degrees be found?
A star with an azimuth of 180 degrees would be due south, and an altitude of 20 degrees would place it 20 degrees above the horizon. So, the star would be in the southern part of the sky, 20 degrees above the horizon.
