Every night you see the usual stars... the big dipper and others. What stars are on the other side of the planet where it is daytime?

The star that can be seen on the other side of the planet where it is daytime is the Sun, which is so bright -- except for during a total eclipse -- it outshines all the other stars.
To see what is/was behind the sun you will have to wait half a year until the earth's orbit takes it to the other side of the sun. Then the night sky will show you the stars that the sun was hiding. The constellations that are hidden by the sun in this way are those that form the zodiac. Constellations like the big dipper in the north are circumpolar (they are above rather than on a level with the sun) and thus remain visible all year.

How many constalation are in every planet?
Every planet in our solar system has its own unique constellations that can be seen from its surface. For example, Earth has constellations like Orion and the Big Dipper that can be observed from different parts of the planet throughout the year. However, the number of constellations visible will vary depending on the planet's location in its orbit and its tilt relative to the Sun.
What is the length of the big dipper?
The Big Dipper doesn't rotate. The Earth, however, does rotate. The period of rotation is called a day and the Big Dipper will appear to make a full circle every 24 hours.
What is the name of the star next to the big dipper?
There are stars next to the Big Dipper in every direction, so you'd have to be a bit more descriptive in your question.
Whereabouts in the night sky can one find the Little Dipper?
The location of the Little Dipper changes from night to night (although circling around every once in a long while). In order to find it, one needs to look for Polaris, or the "North Star". Polaris is part of the Little Dipper. If you know where the Big Dipper is, you can find the Little Dipper near it.
How far is the big dipper?
The Big Dipper (and other constellations) are made up of stars that are difference distances from Earth. Every star that makes up the Dipper is a different distance. It only looks like the big dipper from where we are.

Can you say a dwarf planet a plutoid?
NO, because it is not possible. Every plutoid is a dwarf planet but every dwarf planet is not a plutoid.
What years is the Big Dipper seen?
The Big Dipper can be seen every year. If you live in the northern hemisphere it is a constellation that you can see all year round. So on any clear night, you could see it.
Why does some stars seem to wobble around in the sky.especially the one south east of the big dipper?
The description of "wobble" really doesn't paint a picture that's clear enough to suggest what you're actually seeing. If you see anything in the sky that appears to move with respect to stars, then that object is either the sun, or else it's not a star. It could be a planet, an asteroid, a comet, a meteor, the Earth's moon, or an artificial satellite. "Southeast of the Big Dipper" also doesn't help. The Big Dipper ... and every other pattern of stars ... either rotates half-way around the pole or else crosses the entire sky, every night.
Which month is easy to see the big dipper?
The Big Dipper is a circumpolar constellation, meaning it can be seen year-round in the Northern Hemisphere. However, it is most prominent and easy to see during the spring and summer months.
