Why are some constellation not visible at a particular place?
First of all, some constellations are never visible from certain places on the Earth. For example, people in the Southern Hemisphere can’t see the North Star (Polaris) because the Earth is always in the way. The Declination is very closely related to your latitude on the Earth.
Why is the constellation not seen in the summer?
We see constellations at different times of the year – spring, summer, fall, & winter. This occurs because the Earth is orbiting the Sun. This is why you cannot see Orion or any one constellation all year long… Unless it is circumpolar.
Why are some constellations visible in March but not visible in September?
Some stars are visible in March but not in December because the earth rotate on its axis causing the night movement of stars in the sky. It is also the reason why we see different parts in the sky for different parts of the year. Also, the sun can block the view of some stars due to the earth’s rotation around it.
Why are certain constellations seasonal?
Where the Earth is located in its yearly orbit determines its seasonal constellations, because our perspective of the sky has changed. The appearance of the sky rotating is actually caused by the Rotationof the Earth. As the Earth rotates, the half without light moves to face the sun, creating daytime.

Why are some stars visible in June but not visible in December?
If you look at the night sky different times of the year you see different constellations. This change is due to the motion of the Earth in its orbit around the Sun. Each day a few stars are visible in the east that were not visible the night before.
Why we see certain constellations during the summer and others during the winter?
Without the sun shining during the day, we would be able to see the winter constellations during the daytime in the summer (and vice versa). Because the Earth changes position around the sun throughout the year, we get a different view of the stars in the Milky Way Galaxy during different times of the year.
