Night Vision is a "planetarium" program that will display the heavens from any location on earth. Viewing options allow the user to control which sky objects to display, which font to use, and manipulation of various star parameters. Time may be set to run at multiple speeds, including backwards. Star charts may be printed. Night Vision is written in Java, allowing it to run on all major desktop systems (includes PCs, Macs, Linux, ...). It has been designed to be readily translatable into other languages. Additionally a port of Night Vision's Solar System window has been ported from Java to the Rust programming language, providing executables that can run directly on the host operating system.

The Mars Simulation Project is an open source Java project to create a simulation of future human settlement on the planet Mars. See https://github.com/mars-sim/mars-sim for the LATEST issues/wiki/code change

Java based astronomical logging software which stores it's data in a free and open XML based format (OpenAstronomyLog). Discontinued project: Please check out the fork: https://github.com/capape/observation-manager for an updated version

VStar is a multi-platform, easy-to-use variable star observation visualisation and analysis tool. Data can be read from a file or the AAVSO database, light curves and phase plots created, period analysis performed, and filters applied. Plugins can be developed, e.g. to make additional observation sources available.

OpenAstrology is Java based Object-orientated implementation of Astrology. OpenAstrology will provide a platfrom to plug-in in the knowledge of Astrology and the derived solution will be the best real time Astrology solution

Parallel Iterative Deconvolution is a multithreaded ImageJ plugin for iterative image deblurring.

Parallel Spectral Deconvolution is a multithreaded ImageJ plugin for spectral image deblurring.

The JSky package contains java classes for displaying astronomical images, searching astronomical catalogs and plotting catalog symbols on images. The jskycat application is also included and makes use of most of the features.

GUI to configurate and start XPlanet easily. Adds a downloader to XPlanet to load clouds, images and marker files from the internet. Generates cmd (windows) and configuration files for XPlanet and the downloader. Hides in the System Tray.

SITools2 is a new CNES generic tool performed by a joint effort between CNES and scientific laboratories. The aim of SITools is to provide a self-manageable data access layer deployed on already existing scientific laboratory databases.

gSky Digest is a system tray desktop application that presents astronomy events calculated for your home location. Currently it comes with detailed information about the Sun, the Moon and 7 planets. See Project Web Site for more details.

BoPlanets is a virtual planetarium showing the planets relatively to any observing planet. The planets can be viewed in ecliptical-, equatorial- or horizontal view. The times of rise, transit and set of a planet can be determined. Click on the link below to the web site of BoPlanets to see the help file of BoPlanets.

GRad is a standalone solar radiation model, programmed in Java. It is capable of the calculation of potential (clear sky) and actual (real sky) irradiance and total irradiation for single and multiple geographical locations. Note that, while fully functional, this application is currently not developed any further.

A collection of astronomy tools written in java: sky map, astronomical events, ephemerides, planet visibility, moon calendar and galilean moons.

Specview is a Java GUI_based application for 1-D spectral visualization and analysis of astronomical spectrograms generated by a variety of observatories and instruments. Note that we no longer provide file distributions of this software. You are encouraged to visit the specview web site download page: http://www.stsci.edu/institute/software_hardware/specview/download to retrieve an installer appropriate for your platform.

Astrosoft is a free indian astrology software program for astrologers and astrological students. Its a Java Swing based GUI Application. It provides Birth chart of individual with details of Lagna, Rasi, Nakshata, Thithi, Paksha and many more features.

CosmicOS is a framework for creating stand-alone messages suitable for sending to ourselves in the distant future, or to use in SETI research. It is inspired by Hans Freudenthal's language, Lincos, and Carl Sagan's book, Contact.

This software is a remake of Foucault Test Image Analyzer created by Dejan Vucinic and published on SourceForge at 2002 (https://sourceforge.net/projects/foucault/). "If you are an amateur telescope maker, this software can take the tedium out of measuring the shape of your mirror."

Calculates the shape of a telescope mirror from a sequence of Foucault test images. Java-based GUI simplifies entering and organizing measurement data. Logging and comparison functions enable quantification of the effects of various figuring strokes.

Java software that predicts transits of any satellite, including the International Space Station, across the moon and sun, and close encounters with Mercury thru Saturn.

MoonPlanner is a Java calendar that allow to view moon's phases, moon's signs (constellations in which the moon is), and show the part of the plant corresponding to each sign (flower, fruit, leaf or root). For every calendar's day the user can attach notes (that are stored in a persistent database). At the startup the program will remind you if there will be notes for current day. Timezones and localizations (En, IT) are supported by the application. This calendar is usable between 1900 and 2020. This tool can be useful to plan gardening tasks or to view some astrology informations. References and requirements: - JRE/JDK version 1.5 or later must be installed on host computer. - UI are made using SWT by Eclipse (see http://www.eclipse.org/swt/). - The software uses AstroLib library version 1.1.5 provided by Mark Huss to calculate Moon's phases (http://mhuss.com/AstroLib.html). - The software uses Apache Derby 10.9.1.0 (http://db.apache.org/derby/) as embedded database.

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.
