celestial map
Diagram of heavens
A celestial map is a chart showing the positions of stars, constellations, and other objects in the night sky.
Like a terrestrial map but for the heavens, it helps astronomers and stargazers locate and identify what they're seeing: The celestial map showed Orion rising in the east.
Also called a star chart or star map.
