Do people on the other side of the planet see your constellation at any time during the year?

Do you see what I see?



I'm in Australia so do you see the "saucepan"? Or the "Big Dipper?



Are the stars, during my day time, the stars that you see during your night time?Do people on the other side of the planet see your constellation at any time during the year?Since I live in Michigan, there are some constellations that I can see that you cannot, and vice versa. Specifically, the constellations that are roughly aligned with the poles are more or less limited to viewing by observers in their respective hemispheres. I can never see the Southern Cross from my home, and I doubt that you can ever see Ursa Minor. You can probably see the Big Dipper only during your summer months, while I can see it all year. That being said, most of the constellations are seen by folks all over the world at the same time of year, but of course at different clock times. When I see Orion in the southern sky, you can see it (earlier or later - during your night hours) in your northern sky, and upside down. The Earth is currently in a place where the side facing away from the Sun - the night side - is facing the outer portions of the galaxy where Orion is located. By June, Orion will be hidden by the sunlight and we will all be looking at Virgo or Scorpius.Do people on the other side of the planet see your constellation at any time during the year?
Different locations see different parts of the sky dependent wholly on latitude. Just about everybody on Earth sees "the saucepan" because it's right on the celestial equator; in the northern hemisphere we call it Orion's Belt and Sword. The Big Dipper is only visible in northern Australia low on the northern horizon, but is high overhead in Canada, where I live. You can see the Southern Cross, but I would need to travel a thousand kilometres south to see it.



Day and night depend on the position of the Sun, and that is the same for everyone. To see the constellations close to the Sun, everyone needs to wait 6 months for the Earth to move around its orbit.Do people on the other side of the planet see your constellation at any time during the year?kind of a silly question. Apart from the affects of north-south location, we all see the same stars because we are all looking from effectively the same place. The dark side of the earth doesn't move, the earth moves so different parts are on the dark side at different times. We are all looking away from the sun at night, and the sun hasn't moved, really.



EDIT. I suspect the saucepan is the big dipper or big bear. Orion's belt doesn't look anything like a saucepan to me.Do people on the other side of the planet see your constellation at any time during the year?
It is the North - South which makes the difference. If there were two observers, one right at the North pole, and the other at the South pole, then they would have completely different skies. If both observers are on the equator, but diametrically opposed they then would have the same night sky, but at a 12 hour difference in time.Do people on the other side of the planet see your constellation at any time during the year?I live in PA on the eastern coast of the U.S.



I see the big dipper and littler dipper, though I'm not sure about the saucepan.



The earth rotates, so we don't see them at the same time, but we still both see a majority of the same constellations.Do people on the other side of the planet see your constellation at any time during the year?
I also live in aussie - they call the saucepan Orion's Belt - which is what it's actual name is.



But, yes , they do see it as well, just in reverse.
I would certainly think so
