KStars
Installation Tensorflow Installation. TFLearn requires Tensorflow (version 1.0+) to be installed. First, select the correct binary to install (according to your system). Get more done with the new Google Chrome. A more simple, secure, and faster web browser than ever, with Google's smarts built-in. It is apparently not prime-time ready yet, but bleeding-edge users can still experiment with it as long as they don't mind the occasional bug. Chrome OS may finally see the release of a dark mode. Every year Apple comes out with a new version of iOS and iPadOS in September. But not everyone knows that you can install the beta versions of the new operating system and try all the bleeding edge iOS features as early as June. This can be done by installing the developer beta. Usually, you need an Apple Developer account to do this.

For students and teachers, it supports adjustable simulation speeds in order to view phenomena that happen over long timescales, the KStars Astrocalculator to predict conjunctions, and many common astronomical calculations.
For the amateur astronomer, it provides an observation planner, a sky calendar tool, and an FOV editor to calculate field of view of equipment and display them. Find out interesting objects in the 'What's up Tonight' tool, plot altitude vs. time graphs for any object, print high-quality sky charts, and gain access to lots of information and resources to help you explore the universe!Included with KStars is Ekos astrophotography suite, a complete astrophotography solution that can control all INDI devices including numerous telescopes, CCDs, DSLRs, focusers, filters, and a lot more.
