Open Source ChromeOS Astronomy Software

Multiplatform and Open Source project for astronomical image processing

General purpose scientific framework and its astronomy samples

The Gerbil project moved to http://www.gerbilvis.org Please visit us there for up-to-date information and current software releases!

Jaude is "Java pour les Astronomes Utilisateurs de Detecteurs Electroniques". Jaude is Eclipse RCP and plugin based. So it will provide an Eclipse interface for JSky library (http://archive.eso.org/JSky/).

Application for astronomical photos processing. Intended mainly for amateur astrophotography, for catching "beauty of the universe" rather than some serious scientific data. Includes automatic image registration.

PODWG is a Wallpaper Generator from various "Picture Of the Day" sources such as NASA's "Astronomy Picture Of the Day".

ProStack - a platform for image processing and analysis. It implements various image processing methods as separate modules, that can be joined in a complex image processing scenario by use of a graphical user interface. RPMs are available at https://build.opensuse.org/project/repositories/home:mackoel:compbio

Simulation of star movements with great visualizations of flights through star fields.

A collection of Java ports of open source terrain and solar system generation packages. Code has been extensively refactored, extended and documented. GPL License with exception for required libraries.

Nowadays the idea of a music of the spheres, or a cosmic music that descends from the planets seems more like poetic philosophy than anything scientific. However, when the scientist Kepler discovered special principles about planetary motion, he also reconsidered the music. Apparently his observance of a harmonic law of planetary motion was reason for him to propose a computable system of pitch and harmony deriving from angular velocity. The purpose of the programming project is as a tool to examine his system. With Java 2, it provides an open-source solution for listening to harmonies so generated by planetary motion. This program can run on any computer provided with a Java Virtual Machine (Rev 1.5 or greater). JAVA 2, system independent. Purpose:to encourage research in harmony in astronomy, math and music. Obstacles:math, DSP/synthesis, networks, astronomy. Features:audio, database, graphics Technologies: Telnet, .WAV audio, oggvorbis, other audio

Uranograph is a set of classes and methods written in Java for generating printable and viewable star charts based on different data sources. Currently the Lambert azimuthal equal-area projection is implemented. Output in SVG and PDF (with iText library)
