a free open source planetarium for your computer. It shows a realistic sky in 3D, just like what you see with the naked eye, binoculars or a telescope.
It is being used in planetarium projectors. Just set your coordinates and go.

yay stellarium

I’m still waiting for something that will print charts onto transparencies to be held at arm’s length to map the sky by eye
