Stellarium is a free and open source software that converts  your computer into a planetarium. It shows a realistic sky in 3 Dimension, just like what you would see with the naked eye, binoculars or a telescope.<br>It can be projected onto domes to simulate a planetarium.
It is being used in planetarium projectors. Just set your coordinates and go.
