Earth Plus
The latest edition of Google Earth contains a few new tricks. Choose: View > Switch to Sky and the program flips into an astronomical display of the sky above your current location, complete with star map. Might be helpful when making the calculations for the jump to lightspeed.
Then, hit ALT + APPLE + A on a Mac or CTRL + ALT + A on a PC and you'll enter Flight Simulator mode, letting you fly around / crash mindlessly into anywhere on Earth. There's a list of controls available at the Google Earth website.
