However, there are some constellations that are circumpolar for much of the Northern Hemisphere. This means they never set below the horizon, and therefore are visible year-round. These include:
* Ursa Major (The Great Bear), which includes the asterism known as the Big Dipper
* Ursa Minor (The Little Bear), which contains Polaris, the North Star
* Draco (The Dragon)
* Cepheus (The King)
* Cassiopeia (The Queen)
These constellations are most easily seen in the Northern Hemisphere, but their visibility may depend on your exact latitude.
