libnova is a general purpose, double precision, celestial mechanics, astrometry and astrodynamics library.

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. ...

A PHP module to help perform advanced astronomical computations, such as planetary positions like those published in the astronomical almanacs.

JPARSEC is a Java Package of Astronomical Resources for Standard Ephemerides Calculations, focused on accuracy, documentation, 2D/3D charts, realistic planetary rendering, and Astrophysical modeling. For source code visit http://conga.oan.es/~alonso/

GLNebula is a program designed for the real-time visualization of planetary nebulae models produced by photoionization codes. It uses camera-oriented quads and point sprites to achieve real-time speeds, also provides free camera movements.

Read single-band NASA PDS (Planetary Data System) Image files in Python. Query header information and extract binary image data in a format suitable for PIL (Python Imaging Library). Works for Pathfinder and Mars Exploration Rover images, maybe others.

A universe simulator and generator written in Java that is capable of simulating stars with planetary systems, binary systems and other phenomena. This universe can be generated or scripted (in small parts). This will be used in a planned space combat/
