In the Southern Hemisphere during summer, prominent constellations include the Southern Cross (Crux), which is a key navigational feature, and Centaurus, which contains the bright star Alpha Centauri. Other notable constellations are Scorpius, with its distinctive shape and bright star Antares, and Sagittarius, known for its rich star fields and the Milky Way. Additionally, the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, irregular dwarf galaxies, are visible and add to the summer night sky's charm.

Why can we only see the constellations in the north of the celestial sphere?
This is true if you live in the northern hemisphere. You can't see the southern stars because the bulk of the Earth is in the way. Different constellations are visible in each hemisphere, a constellation in the northern sky can be difficult or impossible to see from the southern hemisphere of the Earth, and vice versa. The reason is that the axis of the Earth's rotation is fairly constant. In its annual journey around the Sun it generally points in the same direction; people in the northern hemisphere will generally see the same constellations year round, and the same in the southern hemisphere. Those living near the equator see some of both. The tilt of the Earth's axis also makes some constellations somewhat seasonal, because of a slight change of the viewer's angle to the night sky.
