Yes, constellations in the night sky appear to shift based on your latitude and location on Earth. If you observe the night sky from a location farther north, certain constellations will be more prominent, while others may be less visible or not visible at all.
For example, northern constellations such as Ursa Major, Cassiopeia, and Draco are easily visible from higher northern latitudes. Conversely, southern constellations like Crux (the Southern Cross) become less visible or are not visible at all as you move northward.
Additionally, the stars and constellations you see may also change with the seasons due to the Earth's orbit around the Sun. Some constellations are only visible during certain times of the year, further affecting what you can see when stargazing from various locations on Earth.
In summary, yes, the constellations will appear to be different based on how far north you are observing from.
