Paul Neave has put together a very impressive flash app that lets you input coordinates and a time, and view the night sky as it would appear on a cloudless night. It helped me identify a few of the stars and constellations visible from my house. You might recognize the name Paul Neave as the guy who made the Flash Earth application, which is also very cool. I couldn’t find a lot of information on his website, but it looks like he used a star map/database from somewhere and wrote it into that awesome dome-y interface.
