Just set the correct time on your computer and tell the program your location on the globe. It will calculate the night sky. It's pretty precise. Try to set the date to when eclipses happened. It's cool. The programme is quite precise. It was not only two days off in the last eclipse of Regulus by Venus, which according to Wikipedia happened on the 9th of July 1959.
