star map
Night sky guide
A star map is a chart showing the positions of celestial bodies as seen from Earth.
Traditional star maps display constellations, individual stars, and sometimes planets, used for navigation or amateur astronomy.
In science fiction and video games, star maps often show travel routes between solar systems: The captain consulted the star map before plotting their course.
