Wikisky

Here’s a fun online planetarium called Wikisky.  You basically can key in your location to see what the sky currently look like in your area.  As you move your mouse around the screen, pop-ups will appear telling you what astronomical body you landed on.  You can also click and drag your mouse pointer around on the screen to move the entire sky.  There are options to find a particular object in the sky, view the constellations, and take a photograph of the current view.

Thanks for sharing I pulled it up and got my kids and we sat around looking at different things that I never knew the name of. Thanks for the post.
