A Fedora Spin providing a complete toolchain for both amateur and
professional astronomers.

== Detailed Description ==
In both amateur and professional astronomy and astrophysics Linux is a
very popular operating system. More and more data analysis is
performed using Python, especially the astropy project is a quite new
effort providing a professional toolchain. The Astronomy Spin provides
a complete scientific Python environment (2 and 3) as well as the
AstrOmatic software. For observational astronomy, KStars provides a
complete solution for astrophotography using the INDI library. In
addition to an astronomical collection of packages the spin also adds
a menu for astronomy to make work more comfortable.
