Pure Mac: Astronomy - Software For Macintosh
APOD Grabber 1.2 A little application to help view, browse, and download images from NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day web site. It will also set your desktop picture.
http://www.pure-mac.com/astronomy.html

Extractions: AstroGrav is an astronomy software program that allows you to simulate how astronomical objects move and interact under the force of gravity. It features superb interactive 3D graphics which allow you to move around within a many-body astronomical system, while watching how it evolves with the passage of time. AstroImageBrowser is a flexible and powerful front end to Digitized Sky Survey (DSS) internet repository of astronomical images for MacOS X 10.4 (or greater) and is distributed as shareware. Images of astronomical objects in any part of the sky can be downloaded, manipulated, overlayed (with a grid, camera/CCD geometries, object and star labels or other pictures), converted, scaled, colorized, annotated, blinked, saved, cached and printed. AstroImageBrowser is particularly useful as an astrophotography planning tool but can equally well be used to explore or browse astronomical objects. After you have planned and taken your picture you can use AstroImageBrowser to superimpose it on the DSS image. People interested in Astronomy should find AstroImageBrowser useful and fun even if they don't have a telescope.
DanIDL
Provides a library of functions and routines written in the Interactive Data Language (IDL). Developed mainly for use in astronomy, the library also supplies general scientific and programming applications.

Extractions: dan.bramich "AT" hotmail.co.uk DanIDL is a highly-optimised library of functions and routines written in the Interactive Data Language (IDL) . Developed mainly for use in astronomy, the library also supplies general scientific and programming applications. Careful parameter checking is performed making routines robust and reliable, and the library is set to expand and develop over the next few years. Development work for this library is non-funded . In other words I work on it in my own time! For this reason, a lifetime subscription to the DanIDL library is charged as a one-off payment (see here for subscription rates ). These funds cover my website hosting and administrative costs, and a small fraction of the time I have invested in this project. A subscribed user will have lifetime access to all released versions of

N-Body/Particle Simulation Methods
An extensive online tutorial with examples and code references.
http://www.amara.com/papers/nbody.html

Extractions: My own experience with N-body simulation methods are with schemes using direct integration of forces ("Particle Particle" methods), and also with the symplectic methods. When a discussion in August 1995 on the sci.math.num-analysis newsgroup about N-body/Particle simulation methods caught my attention, I wrote this article to keep track of the different schemes (too many acronyms!), and to learn what researchers in the field are using today.

Orbit Reconstruction, Simulation And Analysis Website
ORSA is a C++ framework for the development of algorithms and programs oriented to the simulation and analysis of the orbital evolution of bodies in space.
http://orsa.sourceforge.net

Extractions: Home Applications ORSA@work ScreenShots ... About News Announcing SurfaceCoverage Tool May 12 2008 We've released a new tool: SurfaceCoverage . Please follow the link for more details. New Tool Jul 1 2007 After over two years of quiet but active development, we're releasing today the first application based on the new ORSA code base: RendezvousWithVesta . This tool has been developed in support to the NASA DAWN mission , and allows to accurately simulate the dynamics of a spacecraft orbiting the asteroid (4) Vesta . It's main purpose is to determine what is the orbit of the DAWN spacecraft that provides the best coverage of Vesta's surface. This orbit will depend on Vesta's physical parameters, so it cannot be fully determined yet, as we don't know what is Vesta's mass with sufficient accuracy today. Nevertheless, by using RendezvousWithVesta the DAWN Science Team can investigate the possible effects of Vesta's mass on the overall surface coverage, and users in the general public are welcome to download the tool and experiment with it, and possibly collaborate with us on the ORSA-tools mailing list . Read more about it at the RendezvousWithVesta page and download it here RendezvousWithVesta is the first ORSA tool based on the Qt4 framework , that permits to easily develop open-source, GUI based applications and port them to Linux, Mac and Windows. Other improvements include the possibility to import/export
