Debian Astro Education packages

Celestia is a free 3D astronomy program. Based on the Hipparcos Catalogue, it allows users to display objects ranging in scale from artificial satellites to entire galaxies in three dimensions using OpenGL. Unlike most planetarium software, the user is free to travel about the Universe.

This package contains a minimal frontend for Celestia. There is a separate package that provides a frontend that integrates with GNOME.

Gpredict는 Linux 데스크톱용 실시간 위성 추적 및 궤도 예측 프로그램입니다. NORAD 2 라인 요소 세트 (TLE)와 함께 SGP4/SDP4 전파 알고리즘을 사용합니다.

Gpredict의 일부 핵심 기능은 아래와 같습니다:

• 다수의 위성 추적은 컴퓨터의 물리적 메모리와 처리 능력에 의해서만 제한됩니다.
• 목록, 지도, 극좌표 및 이들의 조합으로 추적 데이터를 표시합니다.
• 노트북이나 자체 윈도우에서 동시에 여러 모듈을 열 수 있습니다. 모듈은 전체 화면 모드에서도 실행될 수 있습니다.
• 많은 지상국을 이용할 수 있습니다
• 다가오는 패스를 예측하세요
• Gpredict는 실시간, 시뮬레이트된 실시간 (빨리 감기 및 뒤로 감기), 수동 시간 제어로 실행될 수 있습니다
• 실시간 및 비실시간 모드에 대한 자세한 정보
• Hamlib rigctld을 통한 라디오의 도플러 튜닝
• Hamlib rotctld를 통한 안테나 회전자 제어

KStars is a scientifically accurate desktop planetarium, visualising a graphical simulation of the night sky from any location on Earth, at any date and time. The display includes 130,000 stars, 13,000 deep-sky objects, all 8 planets, the Sun and Moon, and thousands of comets and asteroids. KStars addresses students and amateur astronomers of all levels.

The database of known objects can be extended and updated from local or remote databases, which is prepared for in a user-extendable interface. KStars suggests observations of particular interest like conjunctions with respect to the location of the user. And for user-selected targets it proposes the ones that are best-observable.

The software may be used for planning experiments around the globe, e.g. for remote controlled commercial services. But KStars also features an INDI interface to control local telescopes and cameras. Users with programming experience can script it via the KDE desktop bus.

OpenUniverse (OU for short) is a fun, fast and free OpenGL space simulator. It currently focuses on the Solar System and lets you visit all of its planets, most major moons and a vast collection of smaller bodies in colorful, glorious and realtime 3D. If you've ever had a chance to visit Mercury or asteroid Geographos, here you'll find them looking exactly the same way, following exactly the same path as when you've left them.

Notice that OpenUniverse is not actively being maintained anymore and that users are recommended to use Celestia instead.

Stellarium은 실시간으로 3D 사진처럼 사실적인 하늘을 렌더링합니다. Stellarium을 통해, 육안, 쌍안경 또는 작은 망원경으로 볼 수 있는것을 실제로 볼 수 있습니다.

일부 기능들:

• 60만개 이상의 별을 포함하는 기본 별 카탈로그,
• 가장 밝은 별에 대한 정보 (분광 유형, 거리 등),
• 최대 2억1천만개 별에 대한, 다운로드 가능한 별 카탈로그 확장,
• 모든 New General Catalogue (NGC) 객체,
• 거의 모든 메시에 천체와 은하수 이미지,
• 행성과 위성의 실시간 위치,
• 13개의 다른 문화들과 그들의 별자리,
• 서양의 88개의 별자리를 예술적으로 표현한 일러스트,
• 매우 현실적인 분위기의, 일출과 일몰,
• 7개의 파노라마 풍경 (더 많은 풍경을 만들거나 웹사이트에서 다운로드할 수 있음),
• ECMAScript를 이용한 스크립팅,
• 플러그인 지원: Stellarium은 기본적으로 아래 플러그인을 포함한 8개의 플러그인 제공:
• 인공위성 플러그인 (온라인 TLE 데이터베이스에서 업데이트),
• 시야 시뮬레이션 플러그인 (주어진 시야에서 물체가 어떻게 보이는지 보여줌),
• 태양계 편집기 플러그인 (MPC에서 행성과 소행성 데이타를 가져옴),
• 망원경 제어 플러그인 (Meade LX200과 Celestron NexStar 호환).

Stellarium은 매우 정확한 계산이나 일식 예측과 같은 천문력에 사용되서는 안됩니다. 하지만 육안, 쌍안경 또는 소형 망원경을 이용한 관찰의 밤을 준비하는데에는 이상적인 프로그램입니다.

Xplanet renders an image of a planet into an X window or a file.

In order to run xplanet, you'll need at least one map file. This package includes some map files that can be used with xplanet.

XTide is a package that provides tide and current predictions in a wide variety of formats. Graphs, text listings, and calendars can be generated, or a tide clock can be provided on your desktop.

XTide can work with the X window system, plain text terminals, or the web. This is accomplished with three separate programs: the interactive interface (xtide), the non-interactive or command line interface (tide), and the web interface (xttpd).

The algorithm that XTide uses to predict tides is used by the National Ocean Service in the U.S. It is significantly more accurate than the simple tide clocks that can be bought in novelty stores. However, it takes more to predict tides accurately than just a spiffy algorithm -- data are required for every tidal prediction location. This package provides a sample data set for only one location so you can try out the package, but anything useful requires the data packaged in the xtide-data package (or downloaded from the XTide ftp site).
