Nice online Sky Map

I found this the other night while looking up star map software - an easy to use online Sky map also has a virtual telescope and some nice links.

Nice one - I'm impressed by this. I usually use the interactive Sky Map at the Sky & Telescope (http://www.skyandtelescope.com) website - it's a little easier to change the date and time but it hasn't got the detail of your own. (And I like the little farmyard animals on your link LOL)

I like the little animals too.

Here is another link - although not really a skymap it can make a very nice viewing guide.

I signed up for this and I like the Planets and comet info page. Very handy. They've got a good star map too :)
