PAPFIP (Python And PGPLOT-based FITS Image
Plotter) is a FITS image plotter based on the
Python bindings to the pgplot graphics library. It
is intended as a non-interactive (command line or
script-driven) astronomical image plotter intended
for the automated or repeated production of
finalized publication-quality Postscipt files,
rather than a method of inspecting or visualizing
the data.

libposition provides a set of functions for
calculating motion and displacement in one-,
two-, and three-dimensional space. It is part
of The Universe Project.

Astro::SIMBAD Module is an objected orientated
Perl interface to the SIMBAD astronomical
database. SIMBAD provides basic data, cross-
identifications, and a bibliography for astronomical
objects outside the solar system.

GRALE is a set of tools - a library and a number of accompanying applications - to study gravitational lenses. Gravitational lenses are astronomical objects so massive that their gravitational pull even deflects light rays. This can cause multiple copies of the same background object to be visible, like a cosmic mirage. The locations and shapes of these copies can provide information about the mass distribution of the gravitational lens, which GRALE can help recover using a genetic algorithm-based method. Apart from these so-called lens inversions, it's also possible to simulate gravitational lenses.

Sunrise Sunset is a Python package that can determine the sunrise and
sunset based on a given altitude zenith. It has two public methods. The
first returns the sunrise and sunset in a tuple. The second returns
True or False depending on whether the supplied date/time is during the
night or day. The constructor takes three arguments, a date, latitude,
and longitude. There is one keyword argument for changing the default
zenith, which is set to "official". The zeniths are "official", "civil",
"nautical", "amateur" (astronomical), and "astronomical". It does not
rely on third party packages, but you may need something like pytz to
create dates with timezone info.

Remote Seti's purpose is to build a client-server
application that will send summaries from
Seti@Home clients distributed all across a network
to a central host, allowing a monitoring program to
show results and statistics for multiple computers.

HTMLPerlSETI uses the SETI::Stats Perl module to gather statistics about the UNIX SETI@home client and formats them as an HTML table.

Aciqra is a night sky simulator to show the sky and celestial objects. It uses the highly precise Aloac program to calculate highly accurate positions for planets, stars, comets, and everything else in the sky for thousands of years into the future. It can load a variety of catalogs and even custom ones with a bit of extension.

SetiContainer is a C++ class that allows convenient access to all the information in the state files of a SETI@home client. It periodically examines these files and updates its own data members accordingly. Other programs can use this class to extract information about the progress of the client, the found signals, or the work unit being processed. Additional functions offer more advanced info (like the amount of TeraFlops in a work unit, estimated time of completion, etc.). The SetiContainer class is based on the Qt toolkit, and extensively uses Qt's Signal/Slot technique.
