The Earth’s tilt changes its position relative to the stars and constellations as the Earth rotates and orbits.
The Earth’s tilt changes its position relative to the stars and constellations as the Earth rotates and orbits.

The stars and constellation have tilted and are also moving in space.
The stars and constellation have tilted and are also moving in space.

The location angle of the Earth's tilt relative to the stars and constellations remains the same throughout the year.
The location angle of the Earth's tilt relative to the stars and constellations remains the same throughout the year.

The Earth’s tilt changes its position relative to the stars and constellations only because the Earth rotates around its axis.

Answer 1

The most accurate response is:

The Earth’s tilt changes its position relative to the stars and constellations as the Earth rotates and orbits.

This explanation effectively captures both the diurnal motion (the movement due to Earth's rotation) and the annual motion (the movement due to Earth's orbit around the Sun), both of which cause the apparent positions of stars and constellations to change throughout the night and throughout the year.
