The on-line version of Sky View Cafe is free to use. Yes it costs if you want to download.

There are certainly better and more sophisticated software, even to download and run stand-alone on your computer. I use Stellarium, which is free.

I recommend Sky View cafe as a good place to start if someone is completely unfamiliar with such software. It's very easy to use.

Any recommendations for a first-timer would be appreciated
