Random #Debian Astro package of the week is missfits. MissFITS is a program that performs basic maintenance and packaging tasks on FITS files using an optimised FITS library. MissFITS can:
* add/edit/remove FITS header keywords
* split/join Multi-Extension-FITS (MEF) files
* unpile/pile FITS data-cubes
* create/check/update FITS checksums, using R. Seaman’s protocol.

Random #Debian Astro package of the week is munipack. Munipack is a general astronomical photometry software package. Currently implements functions for standard photometry processing (photometry reductions - dark, flat), aperture photometry, astrometry and photometry calibration, accessing Virtual observatory, etc.
This is a dependency package providing recommended complete installation.

Random #Debian Astro package of the week is psfex. Extract models of the Point Spread Function (PSF) from FITS images processed with SExtractor, and measures the quality of images. The generated PSF models can be used for model-fitting photometry or morphological analyses.

Random #Debian Astro package of the week is scamp. SCAMP reads SExtractor catalogs and computes astrometric and photometric solutions for any arbitrary sequence of FITS images in a completely automatic way.

Random #Debian Astro package of the week is fitsh. This software package provides independent binary programs (so called tasks) which performs various steps of astronomical image reduction and data processing. These tasks are designed for execution from a UNIX command line shell or shell script. Each of these tasks performs a specific operation (e.g. transforming an image to another reference frame, search and identifiy stars

Random #Debian Astro package of the week is planetary-system-stacker. This package contrains software to produce a sharp image of a planetary system object (moon, sun, planets) from many seeing-affected frames using the "lucky imaging" technique._
The program is mainly targeted at extended objects (moon, sun), but it works as well for planets. Results obtained in many tests show at least the same image quality as with the

Random #Debian Astro package of the week is esorex. EsoRex is the European Southern Observatory (ESO) Recipe Execution Tool. It can list, configure and execute CPL-based recipes from the command line.
The Common Pipeline Library (CPL) comprises a set of ISO-C libraries that provide a comprehensive, efficient and robust software toolkit. It forms a basis for the creation of automated astronomical data-reduction tasks.

Random #Debian Astro package of the week is python3-photutils. Photutils contains functions for:
* estimating the background and background rms in astronomical images
* detecting sources in astronomical images
* estimating morphological parameters of those sources (e.g., centroid
and shape parameters)
* performing aperture and PSF photometry
This package contains the Python 3 version of the package.
