Tollerud, E., “Sustaining Community-Driven Software for Astronomy in the 2020s”, vol. Open Science: OA projects support reproducible science through the use of open and accessible data both through good data management practices and effective open software.More concretely, these projects try to work in publicly-visible spaces, encouraging discussion and participation from their public user community on both code and project-level decisions. Open Development: OA projects support the principle of Open Development, a model where the software is both by and for the community.This promotes accessibility, reliability, and scientific reproducibility. Open Source: OA projects are committed to their software being Open Source.The core principles of OpenAstronomy (OA) include: Projects to share resources, ideas, and to improve code. Stellarium is an open source software that is permanently improved and developed.OpenAstronomy is a collaboration between open source astronomy and astrophysics Customisability (add scripts, landscapes, constellation images.).Powerful zoom-function (what about a short trip to Jupiter?).Names of stars, planets and deep sky objects.
Constellation lines, names or art can be activated.Different levels of light pollution to give a more realistic view.Sky can be displayed with or without landscape and atmosphere.Stellarium is very easy to handle and offers a variety of interesting features, for example: The software provides much smoother playback. This movie was taken as a screenshot from Stellarium. Dim the lights, lean back and enjoy the tropical night at Cap Masoala!.Select the landscape Cap Masoala in the sky and viewing options window Follow the steps indicated in the readme.txt-file that comes within the cap_masoala.zip.Download the customized landscape cap_masoala.zip (also for free!).Download the planetarium software Stellarium (for free!).Want to spend a tropical night on the top of the old French lighthouse at Cap Masoala? The free open source planetarium software Stellarium can make this dream come true (you even don't have to worry about dangerous moskitos or tropical rainfalls.) if you use it in combination with this customized panoramic landscape.
