This linux package is a VLF receiver for monitoring VLF transmitter signals for evidence of transients indicating ionospheric disturbances. It takes sample pairs from dual-channel sound cards and spectrally processes them to Stokes parameters.

SaVi - simulate Starlink, Iridium, Globalstar, O3b, GPS, Galileo and other satellite constellations, modify them, or design your own. Requires Tcl/Tk and Unix libraries; 3D viewing option requires Geomview running on X Window.

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, ...).

JAlma is Java Astronomical Almanac.

sidmon is a python program for receiving and recording submarine-transmitter signal intensities and directions in the VLF frequency range using a computer sound card. The intensities of these signals reflect the ability of radio waves at those wavelengths to propagate in what is essentially a waveguide formed by the earth and the ionosphere above it. Fluctuations in those signal intensities and directions often reflect daytime perturbations of the ionosphere by solar processes, such as solar flares and coronal mass ejections, making VLF receivers useful tools for probing the sun and the earth's ionosphere. For additional general information, see the web page at http://solar-center.stanford.edu/SID/.

he JAVA library is designed to read JPL DE/LE ephemerides (DE200, DE405, DE406, DE421, DE422, DE430, DE431, DE440 and DE441) and to calculated the position and velocity of the Sun, Moon, eight major planets and Pluto, also the earth nutations and the lunar librations if they are part of the ephemeris.

MieConScat is a GUI/Console program for generating MIE SCATtering data as a table of cross sections. It can generate scattering cross sections over specified angular ranges and total absorption cross sections. It was initially developed to aid work with optical particle counters (OPC) especially when CONverting data between cross section and diameter space. These methods are described in Rosenberg et al. 2012, Particle sizing calibration with refractive index correction for light scattering...

JAVA project represents the realization of modern astronomical algorithms related to the orbital movement of planets, satellites and small bodies in the solar system by solving Kepler's equation and additional astronomical and mathematical libraries

Generate star maps for anywhere at anytime. Choose from a database of thousands of deep sky objects, including all Messier, Caldwell, and NGC objects. Also allows recording of notes on viewed objects, and configuration of user-generated observation lists.

The first goal of this project is to create a realistic environnment simulator including most of the last scientist discovery. The domain are astrophysics, geophysics, electromagnetics, ... The second goal of this project is the creation of an interface to use this environnment. In particular the fact that it is possible to connect/command/control some automatic tools (robot, sensor, ... ) note : les images utilisés proviennent de http://www.photo-libre.fr

Python Planetary Physics Package

EQAlign born as a software that assists to align a German Equatorial Mount (GEM) exactly to the Earth polar axis. Today, in adition to polar align feature, EQAlign is a full featured astronomical software.

EXTREMA is an interactive program with publication quality graphics and mathematical analysis capabilities. EXTREMA can be GUI and/or command driven. The command language includes conditional branching, looping and subroutine calling constructs.

SPIDR (Space Physics Interactive Data Resource) is a distributed database and application server network, built to select, visualize and model historical space weather data. SPIDR is a web-application and a grid of data mining web-services.

A php port of the solunar tables calculator. Calculates Solunar Tables for any position on earth. Solunar tables are used to predict the best days and times of day to go hunting and fishing.

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.

Mobile Planet Tracking, lets you track the position of any of the 8 planets in the Solar System, you can specify your current earth position, date and time to get the most approximated values.

Global Village is a UI for xplanet on the Gnome desktop

Calculate Solunar Tables for any position on earth. Solunar tables are used to predict the best days and times of day to go hunting and fishing.

Pysolar is a Python library for calculating the position of the sun relative to the earth as a function of latitude, longitude, and time. There is also code included for other problems related to the development of photovoltaic systems. Still in alpha.

MobileStarChart is a MIDP1.0/2.0 midlet for Java-enabled mobile/cell phones or handheld device. It simulates whole sky at any point on earth with constellations, stars up to 6 mag, solar systems and some other celestial objects.

Star Identification from star position measurements, for use with telescopes, cameras, and star trackers.

This library compute earth satellites with Date, Position and TLEs( Three Lines Element).

JOrrery simulates the motion of planets moving under gravity. It comes with a number of initial "scenarios" you can run, such as "The solar system", "Earth & Moon" etc. You can also add more planets during a simulation.
