  • stellarium

    Stellarium is a free GPL software which renders realistic skies in real time with OpenGL. It is available for Linux/Unix, Windows and macOS. With Stellarium, you really see what you can see with your eyes, binoculars or a small telescope.

  • I think you can do this with either Celestia or Stellarium but they've been updated since I used them years ago. I know you go forward and backwards in time, but not sure 3,000 years is possible, but maybe. Here's another list of possibilities I found though. I think screen captures are possible with the first two.

  • Celestia

    Real-time 3D visualization of space.
