It varies depending on the time of year.
The planet Venus will appear near the setting or rising Sun, that is either shortly after sunset or shortly before sunrise. It will appear to be a bright star.
-- Neptune is another planet in the solar system, just as the Earth is. -- The sun is the star closest to every object in the solar system, including Neptune. -- Neptune averages 30.1 AU distant from the sun ... about 2.8 billion miles. -- The Earth averages roughly 93 million miles distant from the sun.
The closest constellation to Earth is Centaurus, which is approximately 4.39 light-years away. This constellation is located in the southern celestial hemisphere and contains several bright stars, including Alpha Centauri, the closest star system to the Sun.
The relative position (direction, actually) of a constellation and the Sun changes, due to Earth's orbit around the Sun. Thus, at one moment the Sun might be in a certain constellation; half a year later, the Sun will be in a constellation opposite in the sky.
The Crab Nebula is located in the constellation of Taurus. It is about 6,500 light-years away from Earth and is the result of a supernova explosion that was observed in the year 1054.
The Sun does not belong to any constellation. This is because our Earth goes around the Sun. As a result, the Sun moves in the sky relative to the other stars. So, the Sun appears to move through the constellations of the zodiac, which is why you hear that the Sun is in a particular zodiac constellation in a particular month. For example, in September, the Sun is in the constellation of Virgo. In October, it will go to the constellation of Libra, and so on.
Mars is currently located in the constellation of Taurus.
in the constellation Taurus.
The Sun does not appear in any of the official constellations
The Earth does not belong to a constellation, but the Sun is located in the Milky Way galaxy in the Orion Arm. The constellations we see from Earth are based on the position of stars as seen from our vantage point.
No. Each star in a constellation is a separate 'sun' all its own.
Ah, what a wonderfully curious question! On July 1st each year, the Sun dances gracefully in the constellation called Gemini, nestled among the stars and shining its warm light on our Earth. Isn't it magical how the universe brings us these moments of celestial beauty?
Polaris is located in the Ursa Minor constellation.
The Arcturus Star is located in the constellation Bootes.
The earth is on the east side of the sun (summer) and when that is so, the constellation Gemini is on the west side of the sun. The sun is blocking the view of the constellation Gemini.

The planet Mercury is located int he constellation Taurus, which is also known as the Bull. Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun.
