he NASA Star Finder charts are constructed based on the visible night sky at 34 degrees N latitude, about as far north of the equator as Los Angeles, California. Will the constellations on the Star Finder chart shift in the sky if you observe the night sky from further south?(1 point) Responses Yes, they will shift South. Yes, they will shift South.

Yes, they will shift South.
When you observe the night sky from a latitude further south than 34 degrees N, constellations and celestial objects that are visible will change, as you will see a different portion of the sky. Some constellations that are visible from 34 degrees N will fall below the horizon when observed from a lower latitude. Conversely, some southern constellations that are not visible from 34 degrees N will become visible.
