...PROPER is a library of routines for the propagation of wavefronts through an optical system using Fourier-based methods. It was developed at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory for modeling stellar coronagraphs, but it can be applied to other optical systems were diffraction propagation is of concern. It is currently available for IDL (Interactive Data Language), Matlab and Python (3.x). It includes routines for generating complex apertures and obscurations and aberrations (Zernike & PSD-defined). It includes a model of a deformable mirror for wavefront control. ...

StarMap 3D: the project aims to offer a fast and easy consultation of stellar systems

SkytechX is free astronomical planetarium for rendering real objects (stars, planets, comets etc.) on the map. Program works with range of years 1 AD and 3000 AD. Main catalogue is Tycho2 with more than 2.5 millions of bright stars. Customized internal catalogue of non-stellar objects has been composed of several sources like NGC, IC, PGC, Messier etc. and contains more than 100,000 of objects. The planetarium allows you to connect your telescope via ASCOM6 platform. You can search for solar or moon eclipses, planet conjunctions and other events in given time range. Supports work with overlayed DSS-FITS images directly on the map.

Package of programs allows to make astrometric reduction of xy-coordinates tables, obtained by mesurements of any stellar frames.

libfgen is a library that implements an efficient and customizable genetic algorithm (GA). It also provides particle swarm optimization (PSO) functionality and an interface for real-valued function minimization or model fitting. It is written in C, but can also be compiled with a C++ compiler. Both Linux and Windows are supported.

Educational astrometry utility for plotting stars on a Hertzsprung-Russel diagram. Useful for learning about stellar spectra and properties and performing spectroscopic parallax calculations, as found in many high school physics courses.
