What would the star chart be like if earth had a ring?

+0
−0

Recently, I've seen those pictures showing what Earth would be like if it had rings, and that made me wonder, what would the sky map be like? This ring would appear as a fixed object (pretty much as stars) so I'd like to know how could this be represented on a two-dimensional map.

What do you guys think?

enter image description here

Note: The ring is rather rocky than icy (due to the closeness to the Sun) and, since in real life moon is pretty shiny at night and it is made out of rock, I think it would be very visible (during day and night both), as it would reflect a high amount of sunlight.
