Answer to Question 1

Many people, without thinking about it much, assume that stars are not in the sky during the daytime. The stars are actually there day and night; they are just invisible during the day because the sky is lit by the Sun.

Answer to Question 2

These constellations are considered circumpolar constellations. From mid-northern latitude, you see a number of familiar constellations circling Polaris and never dipping below the horizon. As Earth turns and the sky appears to rotate, the pointer stars at the front of the Big Dipper (Ursa Major) always point approximately toward Polaris.
