Simulators
| pkgdb:accrete Accrete |
Accrete is a physical simulation of solar system planet formation. This simulation works by modelling a dust cloud around a Sun-like star, injecting a series of masses which collect dust, and form planets by accretion.
|
| pkgdb:celestia Celestia |
Free space simulation that lets you explore our universe in three dimensions.
|
| pkgdb:stellarium Stellarium |
Stellarium is a free open source planetarium for your computer. It shows a realistic sky in 3D, just like what you see with the naked eye, binoculars or a telescope. It is being used in planetarium projectors.
|
| pkgdb:redmode Redmode |
Switch to and from night red mode.
|
| pkgdb:planets Planets |
Planets is a simple interactive program for playing with simulations of planetary systems.
|
| pkgdb:openuniverse openuniverse |
OpenUniverse is a solar system simulation.
|
| pkgdb:mars-sim mars-sim |
The Mars Simulation Project is a free software Java project to create a simulation of future human settlement of Mars.
|
| pkgdb:orsa orsa |
ORSA is an interactive tool for scientific grade Celestial Mechanics computations. Asteroids, comets, artificial satellites, Solar and extra-Solar planetary systems can be accurately reproduced, simulated, and analyzed.
|
| pkgdb:justmoon Just Moon |
Just Moon: a moon viewer.

Image processing
Observing
Star charts
Data processing
| pkgdb:nightfall Nightfall |
Nightfall is an astronomy application for fun, education, and science. It can produce animated views of eclipsing binary stars, calculate synthetic lightcurves and radial velocity curves, and eventually determine the best-fit model for a given set of observational data of an eclipsing binary star system
|
| pkgdb:rmap Rmap |
Rmap is a package that will allow you to generate images of the earth from a distance or fairly zoomed.
|
| pkgdb:sextractor Sextractor |
SExtractor is a program that builds a catalogue of objects from an astronomical image.
|
| pkgdb:starplot StarPlot |
StarPlot is a program for Unix that allows you to view charts of the relative 3-dimensional positions of stars in space.
|
| pkgdb:xstar xstar |
N-body simulator
|
| pkgdb:jday jday |
A simple command to convert calendar dates to julian dates. Quite useful in timing situations where you need elapsed time between dates.
|
| pkgdb:cloudy Cloudy |
Spectral synthesis code to simulate conditions in interstellar matter.
|
| pkgdb:ggobi GGobi |
GGobi is a data visualization system for viewing high-dimensional data.
|
| pkgdb:gnuradio GNURadio |
Gnuradio is a software defined radio framework.
|
| pkgdb:grc GRC |
The GNU Radio Companion is a preliminary graphical user interface which allows GNU Radio components to be put together graphically.
|
| pkgdb:boinc-client boinc-client |
A platform for distributed computing.
|
| pkgdb:cpl cpl |
ESO library for automated astronomical data-reduction
|
| pkgdb:extrema extrema |
Extrema is a powerful visualization and data analysis tool that enables researchers to quickly distill their large, complex data sets into meaningful information.
|
| pkgdb:starlab starlab |
A package for simulating the evolution of dense stellar systems
|
| pkgdb:funtools funtools |
Minimal FITS library and utilities
|
| pkgdb:pp3 pp3 |
Creation of sky charts in Postscript or PDF format
|
| pkgdb:wcslib wcslib |
An implementation of the FITS World Coordinate System standard
|
Telescope control
| pkgdb:libindi indi |
Instrument Neutral Distributed Interface
|
| pkgdb:nexcontrol nexcontrol |
Software to control your Celestron NexStar Telescope
|
| pkgdb:nightview nightview |
NightView is a software package to control of the SBIG's CCD cameras under Linux. It provides full iterative or batch control of a camera and a filter wheel. It is developed on Monte Boo observatory as a main control software of our camera and telescope. The develop is under GPL so a source code is open for possible changes.
