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. 


== Scope ==
* Other developers: N/A (not a System Wide Change) 
* Release engineering: Add spin to spin-kickstarts, ensure spin has been tested, and release with rest of spins 
* Policies and guidelines: N/A (not a System Wide Change) 
* Trademark approval: Requested
