How did people use the stars as a calendar?
You can tell the time of year by looking at the stars in the sky. The ones you see tonight are the same ones you will see in any year on this date. You will see the same ones tomorrow night, but if you go out at the exact same time to look as you did tonight, you would see they were in slightly different positions. As the year continues you will notice that the stars you see are moving and you will start to see different ones. In 6 months from now, most of the stars you will see will be different than what you can see tonight, except for some that are right overhead. So if you can learn what stars are seen at what time of year, you can know what time of year it is and even work out what time it is. That is what people did long, long ago.

Do all parts of the earth see the same stars at the same time?
No, different parts of the Earth see different stars at the same time due to the Earth's rotation. As the Earth rotates, it changes the view of the night sky depending on the observer's location. The stars visible from a particular location depend on factors such as latitude and time of year.
Why do different stars appear during different seasons?
Different stars appear in the night sky during different seasons because Earth's orbit around the sun causes us to see different portions of the sky at different times of the year. As the Earth moves, our perspective changes, making certain stars visible or hidden based on their position relative to us. This phenomenon is why we see different constellations and stars during different seasons.

No, the stars we see in the night sky can vary depending on our location, time of year, and the time of night. The rotation of the Earth causes the stars to appear to move across the sky, so different stars become visible at different times.
Can you see the same stars all around the world?
