The closest I know of to a true "map" you can search for things in, put all of space into any scale, move around in, is SpaceEngine. The VR support is a bit unwieldy but still impressive. You might want to turn off the procedurally generated stars and planets if you want a strict map. The procedurally generated stars are interesting because you can get a sense of density at various scales.

Titans of Space Plus is probably the most educational space VR program I've used. It takes you on a guided tour of our solar system and puts everything into perspective at various scales, including some other stars. But it's not a map of the stars very much. It does the best job of conveying the relative sizes of things.

Universe Sandbox isn't a map either, but it's worth mentioning as as a VR astronomy program.
