Stellarium looks like a great, free, open source astronomy program that runs on Mac, Windows, and Linux. It shows the night sky wherever you want, plays movies over time, can draw stars, planets, nebulas, constellations and their names. And can also show some pretty art for the constellations.
There's a Mac .dmg and X Windows is not required. To get full screen on odd Mac dimensions, set the resolution in the Stellarium.app/Contents/Resources/config/config.ini file instead of the GUI. Very nice stuff.
