    The program is called Stellarium. It's actually free and open source. There's a link to it above in the video description.

    Do you have a video that shows the differences in movements of stars when standing in the same location, facing the same direction, but 6 moths apart ? I would be interested to see the star trails around Polaris, when standing at the North Pole for example, 6 months apart. Since the earth would be millions of miles further away on the opposite side of the sun 6 months later, shouldn't the movement of stars around Polaris appear different from the earth's perspective, when the earth is on the opposite side of the sun ?
