When you look at the stars at night, you can't really tell how distant they are. They can easily seem to be closer than they really are.

Why do we usually only see constellations at night?
During the day, the Sun is out and brightens the sky. Since the Sun is so close to Earth (compared to the stars we see at night), the Sun's light overpowers the light coming from the distant stars. However, at night the Sun's light is not present to wash out the light from the stars, so the stars can finally be seen. The constellations that one sees at night arises from the groupings of various stars.
