Yes, they will shift south.

When you move further south from the 34° N latitude, the constellations that are visible in the night sky will shift towards the south. Some constellations that are not visible at 34° N may become visible as you move south, while some that are visible will be lower in the sky or may disappear altogether.

Question What is the purpose of the NASA Star Finder?(1 point) Responses To see how constellations change positions in the sky throughout the year. To see how constellations change positions in the sky throughout the year. To provide images of constellations from month to month. To provide images of constellations from month to month. To include new stars and constellations that are discovered every month. To include new stars and constellations that are discovered every month. To observe stars and other distant objects in space.

The purpose of the NASA Star Finder is to see how constellations change positions in the sky throughout the year.

The Star Finder helps users understand the movements of stars and constellations as the seasons change, allowing for better observation of the night sky.

The name of the orbiting telescope that helped explore space by taking images like the one you mentioned is the Hubble Space Telescope.

Which list gives key events regarding the exploration of space in the correct order, beginning with the earliest?(1 point) Responses first humans in space, first space shuttle flights, first humans on the moon first humans in space, first space shuttle flights, first humans on the moon first space shuttle flight, Hubble Space telescope launch, last humans on the moon first space shuttle flight, Hubble Space telescope launch, last humans on the moon first humans on the Moon, first humans on Mars, launching of the International Space Station first humans on the Moon, first humans on Mars, launching of the International Space Station first humans on the moon, first lander on Mars, first space shuttle flight

The correct order of key events regarding the exploration of space, beginning with the earliest, is:

first humans in space, first humans on the moon, first space shuttle flights.

This order reflects significant milestones in human space exploration: Yuri Gagarin became the first human in space in 1961, the Apollo 11 mission landed the first humans on the Moon in 1969, and the first space shuttle flight took place in 1981.

The largest structure people have put into space is the International Space Station (ISS).

What is a difference between week 1 and week 3 of the moon’s cycle?(1 point) Responses Week 1 starts with a full moon, while week 3 starts with a new moon. Week 1 starts with a full moon, while week 3 starts with a new moon. Week 1 starts with a quarter moon, while week 3 starts with a full moon. Week 1 starts with a quarter moon, while week 3 starts with a full moon. Week 1 starts with a new moon, while week 3 starts with a quarter moon. Week 1 starts with a new moon, while week 3 starts with a quarter moon. Week 1 starts with a new moon, while week 3 starts with a full moon. Week 1 starts with a new moon, while week 3 starts with a full moon.

The correct response is: Week 1 starts with a new moon, while week 3 starts with a quarter moon.

In the lunar cycle, the new moon occurs at the beginning of the first week, and by the third week, the moon is typically at the first or last quarter phase, depending on the specific timing within the cycle.
